Pottery
My pottery is high fired stoneware. Every piece is food safe,... microwave,…. oven and dish washer safe…....Some pieces are thrown on the wheel….. I also use a slab roller and slump clay into forms….. I find that symmetrical can be somewhat monotonous. I delight in tweaking the pottery in some organic way…...

I have been a potter for many years. and designed a line that I made and sold to galleries and shops through out the US…... My direction has changed ….. It is more of an exploration of clay….. I make many mugs and I delight in their individual uniqueness. No two pieces have to be the same…... I delight in the creative experience and the new discoveries every day....

I can and do replicate some pottery....If you need 12 heart dishes for a shower that are basically the same....I can do that...On the safe side ..give me 4 weeks but if you need it sooner I will work with you.

Rag Art
About ten years ago, I wanted to explore fiber in some way. I have always loved fiber and the color but always put it on hold….. Not knowing what I wanted to do --I just waited. Listening to the radio one day while throwing, someone was talking about rag rugs. My head popped RAGS…... It was an instant thing and I have not been able to get enough of the concept….... I make rag baskets, wall baskets, bags, wall hangings, runners , mats, coasters and what ever else pops into my mind…....

I work with recycled clothing. .... Most pieces are crochet and a few are knitted. I sometimes ad yarn , buttons, beads that I make and other found items……

Jewelry
My jewelry studio is full of beads ….Beads I make and those I have discovered….many from Etsy vendors….Love my jewelry studio…..toy land to me….I combine my beads with the unexpected….mix my very rustic beads with crystals …really like the big contrast……It has gotta be a delight to see.

Beads.....
I made pottery beads in the 70's and 80's and then just went in other directions................. A trip to New York City and a visit to the Natural History Museum about 20 years later brought me back to my base.......There was a display of a string of very earthy tribal beads from our ancient roots...sorry can not tell you the who the roots were... ( wish I had written it down)....but I felt very connected. I think making beads as I do....One by one with basic clay makes me feel connected with my roots........probably people that hand spin wool feel the same way.......or forge iron...........It is a good feeling..........

Off to the studio…...
Thank You!!
