“I believe that by choosing to disregard the conventional rules for a material, I can work with complete creative freedom.”

Explore A Reboot of Tradition

Porcelain became my material of choice for its smooth, creamy texture — some liken it to brick cream cheese.

I began with the encaustic wax method referred to as "accretion," achieved by repeatedly brush-stroking hot wax over my form to create a sculptural surface.

I was completing a sculpture when I noticed a handful of reed resting on my studio shelf. It was the perfect material to resolve the sculpture.

My forms and materials are a reboot of traditions: knitting, woven wall hangings, vessels from metal, wood, clay.

I took one ceramics class as an undergraduate and for unknown reasons HATED working in clay. Must be why I made the tongue sticking out as a gesture of defiance ? There is a mouth and tongue on 2 sides- it was a set of 3-4 canisters. I save just thi

August 15, 2025. Just saying today’s date seems unreal. Where did the summer go? I have been holed up in my studio working. Nay honestly more like playing. It has been crazy hot and humid outside so staying inside to work is a no brainer. Prepa
