About:
Emerging Artist
I create ceramic sculptures of animals built from a single slab of clay. I treat the sculptures as canvases, using underglazes to bring whimsy and surprise to these recognizable and repeatable forms. Animals are my form of choice because of the close relationships I have had with them all my life. Throughout times of stress or hardship, animals have been there to offer relief. I hope that viewers receive a similar sense of comfort from my artwork as I have received from the natural world throughout my life.
My art is made with the goal of creating whimsy and joy. As someone who has struggled with anxiety and depression, I know how important it can be to find little things to make you happy when everything else around you can feel so heavy and scary. Color is a big part of meeting this goal, as I feel it allows people to reunite with their sense of childhood wonder. I feel I have succeeded if my work can put a smile onto people’s faces. I hope that my sculptures, when displayed inside people’s homes, will offer a brief moment of respite from the stresses of the world.

About:
My work is inspired by Realism, Victorian styles and Modern Art with a minimalistic execution. The movement of the form accompanied by imagery and color gratifies its viewer. My work is inspired by traditional Japanese pottery, American Contemporary and the forms of my instructors. I believe that art must not only work well in one’s day to day life, but enhance it as well.

About:
I use various handbuliding techniques to create my forms (pinching, slab building and coil). I create elaborate decorative surfaces with underglazes and sgraffito (carving). I glaze for food safety.
