The idea of the vessel is inseparable from the thriving force that is humanity.  The various processes of making form is a meditation to me. There is an exchange between me and the clay changing it at a molecular level so it emits positive energy from its core. Through combining wheel thrown, slip cast and hand sculpted elements in my work I am free to express various types of emotion. The material science and malleability of ceramic and glass allows endless exploration opportunities in the consideration of color, sheen, durability, texture and final aesthetic.
