Artist Statement:
After many years of expression
through a variety of artistic
media I found my true passion
in ceramics, more specifically
through the art of American
Raku.
I deeply appreciate the entire
journey from its beginning as
a quiet contemplative moment
when I first press my hands
into a mass of clay. What
follows entails the design and
crafting of a piece, it’s
burnishing, bisque, glazing
and then completing with the
Raku firing and post firing
reduction phase.
My work grows and expands,
subjected to a vast range of
influences. I love pushing the
limits of the clay,
experimenting with and
fabricating new glazes and
firing techniques.
American Raku is a specific
challenge. While I can and do
plan for a particular outcome,
the mercurial nature of Raku
often results in a creation
that is surprisingly
different, unique, powerful
and beautiful. This is a
marvelous lesson in
non-attachment that guides me
and hopefully others into a
deeper understanding of self.
