Announcement

Over the years I have worked with nonprofits and in higher education and I have a passion for making things and teaching people. I recently left my job as a Service Assistant Professor at West Virginia University, to focus on my studio and teaching in the community. I give workshops and teach classes, love answering questions, and if you know me in real life you know I talk a lot. In the studio I divide my time between making ceramic tile, sculpture, and jewelry. I recently launched a sales website that features my handmade jewelry and tile.

NEW Workshop

Cut it Out: Digitally Cut Stencils for Dynamic Ceramic Surface

I am excited to be collaborating with my good friend Naomi Clement to present this virtual workshop. Do you want to create more dynamic and personalised surfaces on your pots? In this virtual workshop, you will learn how to create and use multiple types of stencils for embellishing the ceramic surface. We’ll cover everything from simple paper and vinyl stencils, to using craft foam and tar paper to create stencils that add texture to your work. In this virtual workshop, I will demonstrate unique strategies for using craft cutters (such as the Silhouette Cameo and Cricut Maker) to cut stencils to help you create dynamic ceramic surfaces.

SHOP

Welcome

In my work I strive to elicit a visual exploration of form and structure. Initial inspections lead to discoveries as the layering creates the opportunity to reveal what is hidden or induces frustration at not being able to access every aspect of the work. Faint impressions created by the physical impact of one surface on another heighten feelings of distance and tension. Physical manifestations of cast shadows serve to give substance to both objects and their voids while raising questions as to what is real and what is not. Multiples and abstraction aid in reflecting or obfuscating what is seen, creating interactions that mimic our own inner and interpersonal relationships, interactions that are filled with tension and complexity.
