I have been an artist and teacher most of my life. I was  raised in East Boston, Massachusetts, served in Vietnam and am the proud product of a working class family. I have worked for over 40 years in many creative areas, including: studio art, teaching art in the Brockton, Massachusetts Public Schools (retired), teaching graduate ceramics at Bridgewater State University, Bridgewater, Massachusetts (retired), Studio art classes as well as Drawing and Painting at The Fuller Craft Museum, Brockton Massachusetts.   This site is but a sampling of my work. If you are interested in specific techniques or thinking about custom work, you may contact me via the Email link below for more information and pictures. My focus at this time is full time studio ceramics. I work in functional stoneware and porcelain as  well as decorative Raku and primitively fired work. Other creative work includes brush making, drawing, painting, print making, sculpture, and like my father, grandfather and brothers, I have worked and created with wood.
