"It’s my passion to create art that is both beautiful and functional. I hope to create pieces that give a moment of calm amidst the bustle of everyday routines. This is why I have fallen so deeply in love with ceramics. Transforming a lump of clay into a unique piece of art that can be used and enjoyed is exhilarating! Working from my studio, I am usually found quietly working on my next idea! Each piece is wheel-thrown and hand illustrated using techniques I’ve learned from watercolor painting, gold embossing, and line drawing. Whether it is a mug, a plate, a bowl, or whatever my sketchbook scratches have inspired, I desire to transform everyday moments into opportunities to savor beauty and simplicity. Let’s enjoy life’s little moments, together!"
