Having grown up on a small farm in New England I have always had an affinity towards animals.I received my Bachelors of Fine Arts  in ceramics from Northern Arizona University and I completed one year at the Niederrhein Ceramic Technical College, in Krefeld, Germany.  I have maintained a studio in Marietta for the past decade. The pots I throw on the wheel are decorated with sgraffito-ed animal images that are reminiscent of wood block prints. These black and white outlines are colored with underglazes in a continuous band of interacting figures around the pots.  I find this technique intriguing and after 20 years I am still challenged by the melding of form and surface design.
