ARTIST'S
STATEMENT
My purpose in creating art is hopefully to produce something
that is pleasant to the viewer or user in some capacity -
no hidden meanings, no cryptic messages, nothing overly complicated
to tax the mind in an already overtaxing world.
Sometimes, I incorporate some humor in my work, some whimsy,
because so much of today's world just isn't light-hearted enough.
We could all use a good laugh, now and then.
Most of my pottery is functional, so that the owner can enjoy using
the piece daily, and can gain a connection with something handmade
and personal.
