My raku is unique because of the copper raku glaze that I developed. The magic of the fire brings out the colors of copper. Each piece captures the fire in a different way and the end result is that each piece, either hand built or thrown, has its own unique colors. I love to design and build a form, carve the textures to enhance the design and then raku the piece. Color, form and texture combine to make a cohesive statement in clay.

Raku Flower Container
Soft smoked black caved clay accented by copper band makes a perfect flower presentation. The attached pin frog enables you to have one or two flowers for a complete arrangement. I love flowers and wanted to make a unique flower container. $42.00 what a bargain!I am home for several weeks and will be working on new ideas for this fall. I love to have this time to explore new ideas and be creative. I am also painting this summer. I work in oils and paint from photos from trips and nature. It is a time to regroup and renew the creative spirit.

Spring Schedule 2017
Spring is one of my most favorite seasons! It means rebirth and renewal. I hope to exemplify these in my new spring work in raku. I am combining the soft smoked blackness of the raku firing and copper to showcase the white flowers of spring. With open cut work and texture, the flowers come alive. I hope that you will visit me at a spring show and see my new work.
