I have raku pieces in The Red Dog Gallery, Winston-Salem, and Seagrove Pottery of the Sandhills, Southern Pines, NC

Schedule: April and May, 2018

Raku Lantern

Sometimes the fire is the magic and in this case it is true.  You can see how the fire flamed up this piece, bringing out all of the colors of copper.  I love it when the blues and coppers merge.  Nature is my inspiration in its color, texture and form.  Raku combines the earth, wind and fire, connecting my work back to nature.  This lantern stands 18" with cut work.

It has been a busy year and is winding down, but there are still November Art and Craft shows.  I have been developing new work with the contrast of the soft smoked blackness and the shine of the copper raku.  I love flowers and gardening and they definitely  are influencing my designs.

Summer Schedule

Raku Blooms is a new piece that was hand carved with blooms and is sitting on a lily pad.  I love flowers and am always inspired this time of year.  I have opened areas so that a candle may be placed within. When lighted, the light will shine thru.  Let me know what you think!

I am going to participate in a Pop Up Gallery on South Elm Street in Greensboro, NC over the 4th of July.  It will be located across from the Mellow Mushroom.   Connie Logan and I will set up a gallery. Connie is an oil painter and I will have a great selection of Raku.  Hope that you stop by.

New Raku

This is one of my newest pieces, a combination of the burnished black and the rich copper. Intricate designs have been carved into the area that I will glaze. The over all contrast between the smooth blackness and the vibrant copper gives my raku an updated look. This piece can be seen in an exhibition at the Mendenhall Administration Building on the Davidson County Community College, Lexington, NC. This piece as well as three others will be on exhibit until Dec 10th, 2012.

During the months of February thru Aprril, I am having an exhibit of oil painting. This series is called "Have a Seat". I have painted a series of chairs from photographs of my travels. It was a great change of pace thru the cold winter months. They are warm and inviting and beg you to come in and have a seat. They will be in Southwinds Gallery, Kernersville, NC thru April. If you would like to see any painting in a larger format I will be glad to send it to you. They are for sale from $425 - $550.
