Teaching Philosophy
I love teaching and sharing my passion for working in clay. Artist statement: Currently my work is handbuilt using colored porcelain. My exploration of color, pattern and form are unified by coloring the porcelain itself. I endeavor to convey a sense of calmness and fluid repetition akin to the movement of a swimming fish or the intricate pattern of a shell.
