As a potter, I am drawn to the subtle details I observe in nature, such as the way a leaf is connected to its stem, the variation in ripples of water, or the tones of shadows and filtered light. Firing my wheel thrown stoneware in a soda kiln yields endless variation within the textured and carved surfaces. By preserving my reflections of nature into clay, I hope to revive our sense of touch and awareness with the everyday use of my handmade forms.
