"As an admirer of the Shaker design philosophy that ‘beauty rests in utility’, I make wheel thrown and hand-built pots that draw on the quiet, archetypal objects of basic function. Minimal in form and surface, and hovering between the primitive and refined, pieces are built roughly by hand or thrown on the wheel, and then scraped and pared down to achieve their final form. Mostly neutral surfaces emphasize the subtleties of material and process as the primary decorative elements – dragged grog, finger marks, and the layering
of white slips and glazes."
