When I found pottery I found a lifelong passion. Pottery fulfills a desire to create something useful AND beautiful.  I focus on making my pieces comfortable in your hands and therefore the pieces that you will want to use over and over again. 

My studio is at my home, in Ojai, so I am able to throw, glaze and fire my ware right outside my back door. With a beautiful view and a menagerie of wild birds flying by it is truly a peaceful place.

My pieces are fired to mid-range in an updraft gas kiln. All functional ware can be put into a microwave, dishwasher and oven (not pre-heated).  All glazes are food safe.
