I am a clay artist and an oil painter.

In my oil painting practice, I work within the umbrella of contemporary realism.  In my ceramic practice I dance along the line between functional work and sculptural, decorative work.  In both mediums I make work that lives in the world of human emotional experience, particularly focusing on how people relate to and respond to the world around them and to each other.  I believe that art is a very psychological and emotional experience, and through my art I want to speak about the complexity and depths contained within a single human person.
