Artist's Statement:
There is nothing like the smell, texture and moistness
of clay in
one's hands...It is sumptuous! It is such a sensuous experience.
I have been playing with it for years and there is never
any end to
what it teaches me and boundless avenues one can explore
with it.
I
am getting ready to launch an urn series in 2009 for commercial
production which will consist of both low fire, painted "green"
vessels that will degrade once buried and high fired glazed
pieces
for home or mausoleum installations. After launch I will
still
afford to languish in creating my altars and shrines and/or
wherever
my hands and muses take me. Such a lovely journey this
is.
