I received my first pottery lesson in 1992. It consisted of approximately 5 minutes of instruction and demonstration, after that I have spent the time since then developing my form and finding a voice for our my work.
Together with my wife, we have spent several years researching primitive firing techniques and other potters’ modern-day interpretations. I was fascinated by the colors and designs achieved without glazes and began to experiment. We embraced the unpredictability and variations from piece to piece. Every firing is different, the method may be the same, but results do vary.
The time spent working without glazes has given myself and my wife the opportunity to explore and develop functional ware that still expresses variation and unpredictability in each piece by allowing the exterior to crack and highlight those cracks in the final product. Our pieces are commonly described as "Statement" piece in a collection.

My art tends to be impressionistic and/or abstract created on a non-porous surface such as Yupo or tile using a variety of inks. When I am satisfied with the colors and design, the art is sprayed with a protective UV coating and then finished with a two-part epoxy resin. The final step is finishing the edges, adding hangers and small felt pieces to prevent marks on the wall while hanging.

The art work I create is made by using fluid mediums such as inks and paints. The substrates I use are non-absorbent plastic sheeting (Yupo) and glazed tile. When I have completed the designs, I spray an ultra-violet protection on the art work, before embedding it in two-part epoxy resin. My designs are impressionistic florals and landscapes, or non-objective abstracts.

I make pieces of pottery from earthenware clay and then fire the pieces to temperature. During the second firing, I take the pieces out of the kiln with long tongs and quickly lay strands of horse hair or feathers on the piece so the heat from the pottery burns the carbon into the clay body. I use several different techniques in layers to color the piece and give it texture.

All works featured are traditional, hand printed intaglio and lithographic prints- not digital reproductions. Intaglio prints are typically multiple copper plate etchings printed on high quality archival paper. All lithographs are printed from traditional stone and/or aluminum plate matrices.

I hand cut and polish each stone and fossil used in my pieces. Art jewelry uses original, digital artwork set in sterling silver with resin. Metal is cold-forged and sculpted.
