"I love the feel of clay; its weight and strength. 

It is important to me that my pottery reflects the shapes and textures of the natural world and highlights the natural organic qualities of the clay and glazes. I love the effect that combining weaving and other natural materials creates in my pieces. Depictions of flora and fauna are a reminder of their importance to the beauty and environmental balance in our world. Enhancing my work with designs that reflect my respect for the world around me is essential."
