All of my pottery is hand-thrown and microwave and dishwasher safe. All glazes are nontoxic and lead-free. The smell of the clay and the way the light reflects in the bucket of water I dip my hands into reminds me of afternoons spent by the river. I love the rhythm of throwing. The way the time can be measured in pots thrown, or handles pulled. I love using my whole self to make pottery. There is a pleasant ache to my muscles after a long day of throwing, but potting also requires keeping my mind busy solving the next glaze chemistry puzzle, and my eye designing the harmonious curve of the next piece to come off the wheel. I hope you enjoy my work.
