Hedgehog Lounge

rrent themes: faces, skulls, nature’s forms and animals. Once I put my hands in the clay I usually have a pretty good idea of where I’m headed. Even in the earliest stages I usually find myself considering how a piece will be glazed, fired and amended. When my work is going well, I am filled with a sense of elation and validation. I know a piece is done when I can manage to quit touching it and the sense of urgency to work with it dissipates. In addition to the hedgehogs; I’m currently exploring a series of “monster sculptures”, face garden sentries and seed pod inspired sculptures. I work in clay to nurture my soul but I’m ready to share my work with a larger audience.
