My artwork is uniquely designed as one of a kind creations.
Each piece is distinctively different in its function and form.
They are hand-crafted of high fired porcelain clay or Minnesota
stoneware clay. Each clay is moist when formed or draped
to create a fluid shape. They can be drawn upon, shaped or
pressed with materials from nature.
PROCESS

The pieces are dried for about 2 weeks, then bisque fired
to about 1855*F for 6 hours and then cooled for
18-24 hours. After the bisque firing, the pieces are
intricately glazed- sometimes with 4-5 layers of underglaze and
overglaze. They are then glaze fired for 6-8 hours to about 2269*F.
When finished the kiln needs to cool naturally for 18-24
hours prior to opening the lid.
I use a 10 cubic foot propane gas kiln.
