While combining both wheel thrown and hand-altering techniques, my attention is drawn to an object's form and its utilitarian aspects that may reference another place or time. I aim to create bold, functional forms with glazes that I formulate to show depth and surface variation. A major source of inspiration for me comes from both American and British potters who have emerged from the Leach legacy. I also admire rural pottery traditions such as English country slip ware and the spontaneous surface gesture of Japanese Onda.
