Form and aesthetics are the founding elements in my slip cast functional ware, and for the last several years I have been committed to achieving a harmonious balance between function, comfort and beauty. This style of modern elegance honours both the essence of utilitarian objects, and the idea of beauty in function. The supple surface of raw, unglazed porcelain engages the viewer to become the user, with a new relationship created through the sense of touch. My pieces are both a visual and tactile experience. My marbling series explores the fluid and organic line movement which evokes an ever changing landscape unique to itself, much as the interpretation by each individual.

Wonderful designs for regular kitchen ware. I've never tried pottery before, but if I can learn to make something like this, I'm sure I'll truly enjoy the experience. Being a realtor in Charleston, South Carolina, I've seen my fair of lovely artworks. However, I don't often see anything that can both be artful and functional at the same time.
