Handmade in Montana
Always chasing or developing the next idea, I love making pieces that are used by others. Being raised in a farm and ranch community instilled practicality which is the source for my mainly utilitarian work. My studio is based out of Wibaux, Montana.
Each piece is individually thrown on the wheel or constructed from a slab. I use hand mixed glazes that are food safe and can handle a ride in the dishwasher or microwave for convenience. I prefer my pots to be able to be in hands, on tables, or sitting dirty in the sink rather than tucked up in a cupboard or only display having people afraid to use them.
The Lord has wired each one of us differently. I find joy in being a maker. From throwing to individually pulling a handle the lovely adventure of clay holds me captive. I hope that the joy that inspires me might carry on through my pieces and bring bits of happiness to others in their daily lives wherever and whatever that may entail for them.
