I’ve been fascinated with beauty, grace, and the unique characteristics of creatures that captivate our imagination. Each piece is individually sculpted, formed, and manipulated by hand and then raku fired. This form of firing is temperamental and sometimes unforgiving, making every piece truly one of a kind.
My sculptures try to tell a story, only you can imagine !
I love showing a quirkiness love, grace and unique characteristics between them that captivates the imagination.
Alot has to do with the love of another, and the love of my parents… my parents gave me everything, and to this day show me what love truly is.
I try too show this interpretation in my sculptures by adding a bit of love and whimsy ..
