Description of Work
My works are graceful organic forms with bronze and silver finishes, satin surfaces complimented by shiny ones; inspired by nature, architecture and life's journey. The shapes are constructed with slabs and coils fabricated from white high fire stoneware and more recently porcelain. Ajour, relief, texturing, special glazes and patinas further interpret the design.
