All my work is produced in porcelain that I make myself. I have on occasion purchased a translucent porcelain that I use when working with celadon or clear glazes.

Most of my work is wheel thrown but I do enjoy handbuilding and assembling thrown parts to produce interesting forms.

I love the delicacy of porcelain and try to take it as far as I can with my pierced pieces.

Many of my glazes are micro crystalline which you can see in the Crystal Pink Pierced Series, Blue Series and Brown Kamloops Series.

The Kamloops Series is developed from a base of earthenware clay found in the Kamloops region of BC. Alone it is a lovely rich brown. I darken it with metallic oxides to produce two black glazes. Some of the pieces are textured to bring out the look of beaten metal. The inspiration for this glaze comes from seeing old iron work in Japan.

I don't paint on the surface of my pieces, rather I develop glazes that will enhance their form.
