CERAMIC PORTFOLIO

The work

A little bit of everything that’s come out of the kiln: swirly marbled clay, smoky raku, glowing pendant lights and a lot of very good dogs, cats, horses and ducks.

Marbled & Mason-stained

Clay I dye by hand, then swirl together on the wheel so the color runs all the way through.

Raku

Pulled glowing from the kiln, smoked and cooled fast for crackles, carbon and a little drama.

Lighting

Hand-thrown pendant lights that glow when you switch them on. I usually throw them from two to three different clays, often recycled, marbled together for an interesting contrast. Ask about a custom pendant →
