All of my sculpture and ceramics are hand built with very minimal tools such my hands, a rolling pin, and a few handmade stamps. I love the gentle simplicity of working in this spare manner. I make each item myself in my home studio.

What my lovely customers have to say:
"It's lovely, even better in real life! Thank you!"
"I've bought several pieces from this talented clay artist and love this new one. The attention to detail is her hallmark!"
"Beautiful work. Far more beautiful in person than the picture can even convey."
"This little rabbit is precious. Your attention to detail and ability to capture the essence of these creatures is amazing"

5 out of 5 starsLove my Dolphin statue! Pretty sure that I come from the Dolphin realm. When I dream it's always about these amazing mammals. Such beautiful craftsmanship! Also, really love the added clay cactus, we put that and the Angel on our holiday tree. Highly recommend!

5 out of 5 starsI just love these cactus ornaments! Each one is unique, featuring different shades of green, and one of them is even an Arizona red rock shade. They have wonderful detail -- with texture and ribbing, and the perfect saguaro cactus silhouette. Some are glossy, while others have a matte finish. I'm excited about sending these along with other Christmas gifts to relatives in the west, with a tag on them that says "Open before Christmas," so they can enjoy them on their Christmas tree before the big day. Denise packaged these ornaments so attractively and safely, as well, and even included additional hanging twine in case I wanted a slightly different look. Thank you so much, too, for the absolutely beautiful hand painted cactus ornament! It is so fun and unique, and will bring a little of the southwest to our Christmas tree.

5 out of 5 starsThis is a beautiful piece! In his robe adorned with cacti, this gentle coyote seems to be a sort of guardian of the desert. There are such wonderful textures and finishes here -- the matte finish of the coyote himself, with realistic fur texturing, contrasting with the gorgeous glossiness of his robes with their cacti and graveled texture along the base. And the detail work is amazing! Striations on one cactus, spines on the others, the intricate gravel, and the teeny claws on his paw. I have just the place picked out for this coyote -- in a wooden bookcase, where he can survey his surroundings with that serene gaze. Denise is as nice as she is talented, and offers exceptional customer service along with her unique, one-of-a-kind creations. Thank you!
