Although my background is in drawing and illustration, I also find pleasure hand-building in clay. Quilts, textiles, patterns, birds, butterflies, and children are my sources of inspiration. In my clay work, I enjoy the tactile nature of the process creating items to be used and touched by the owner. In my drawings I am intrigued by narrative and story. All my work is designed to delight and inspire the viewer.
Although fused glass is the basis of my craft business, it continually leads me to other areas of exploration. The color, liquidity and variable nature of fused glass and other materials constantly invites innovation. Everybody has an idea - what fun to interpret by way of kiln fired glass! The possibilities of heat and gravity manipulation are endless!
My latest project is 5x7, 8x10, and 11x14 handmade, hand painted tiles. Also included in my inventory are unique mugs, Flower Keepers, cookie jars, elegant fruit/serving bowls, and chip and dips.
