Artist

Artist Statement
I am a retired architect and have always preferred the artistic or design phase of the architecture process. In addition, I enjoy sketching and painting. Through an Arkansas Arts Center class, I became interested in pottery, which shares a characteristic of architecture being a three-dimensional form of art.

The process of transforming an organic material into something that is useful as well as an object of beauty is very rewarding. I throw and hand-build a variety of pottery pieces using pottery clay. After a piece or shape is created and cured it is bis fired in the bis kiln. Then a finish glaze is selected and applied the piece is then  placed in a high fire or Raku fire kiln.

I am a dedicated Hog fan as well as a University of Arkansas alumnus. Therefore, I enjoy making the clay hogs. Each hog is hand-built with an unique expression, then fired in a variety of school finishes. The hogs are display pieces, whereas the hog mugs are food safe.

When a work is selected from the many  available choices and finds a place in one's home, it is a most rewarding compliment.
