about
me: I love throwing pots. I have a very small studio in Paris where I
give a few classes and work mostly on functional pieces. I consider
myself “emerging” because I don’t live off of my pottery activity and
because my style isn’t very well defined yet – there are so many
interesting things to try that I have trouble settling on a particular
issue and really working it to perfection. The last photograph is my
current attempt at building a series and sticking to it across various
shapes.
