Ceramic Creations, Originals.
These clay creations are gifts from the Dream of Love. Owls, cats, horses and more. My artworks are created while I am standing in open hearted relationship with Mother Earth, with Clay and Her infinite potential to create more of the Dream of Love.

I know from personal experience that working with earth and fire one is able to reach through the thin veil of illusion to the true experience that everything your heart dreams is possible. This is the underlying true value of the experience we call "art".

It’s spring here in the mountains of North Carolina and as I write this, my studio is filled with sunlight. I have my hands in clay and I'm feeling inspired, co-creating forms with soft moist earth, my process illuminating a personal sacred relationship with this Earth and the realm of infinite possibilities.

I and grateful to make ceramic creations that honor the Dream of Love that that we all are.
Colorful, magical, and one of a kind artworks to bring forth the happiness and freedom within to your home.

I love working with clay and have been co-creating with clay for 34 journeys around the sun. What have I discovered over time by hand building clay? One thing, there is much more going on than just creating clay objects and a career as an artist. I’m creating expressions of my relationship with clay and with this sacred world and the beings here; animals, birds, owls, horses, trees, flowers, medicine plants and two legged humans, all manifestations of the sacred dream of love and power. another thing i have observed; that energy is imprinted in these artworks. Viewers may sense that energy in the artwork and recognize something resonating in themselves.
Consciously and with a cultivated awareness, I work and live within this energetic ocean of Creation. My artworks are one way that I honor this relationship with the energy of Creation.
The natural world is filled with wonders, curiosities, teachers, and amazing beauty. What is that all about? I’ve wondered about the beauty of this world from early on in this lifetime. What is is that I’m drawn to in the natural world, the more pristine, the more beautiful and powerful Nature appears to me. The Natural world is revealing and communicating something.
My work with clay is a way of exploring, honoring and expressing my curiosity and growing relationship with Sacredness of Nature and the Mystery of Creation. Working with clay, fire and dreams, my artwork is a practice of perceiving the sacred in the moment, in myself, in the clay, Mother Earth, and honoring and building that relationship by bringing sacred dreams from the Mystery into the literal world.
With clay, the dreams in my heart become form. I work with clay, co- creating with this sacred One, watching the piece come into being. This process feels magical; I leave the marks and “imperfections” of this exciting process visible in the texture and the surface of the artwork. I layer into the surface colorful under glazes and/or slip. The piece is fired twice, sometimes more. Under glazes while permanent have a soft matte surface which allows the texture of the clay and the forming process to remain visible.

With humility and gratitude I offer these, my clay creations.
