“My work
is centered on my relationship to the natural environment. I believe
that what defines the wilderness is what we project upon it; that a
journey into this environment is also a journey within oneself. The
contrast found between using our external experience of solitary natural
settings to stem the discovery of internal meditations has become the
foundation for my recent work. I research ways in which visual elements
of contrast can symbolize dualities that exist within a larger context,
most notably in regards to an individual’s relationship to natural
landscapes. In creating contemplative vessels I seek to evoke opposing
feelings; intimacy and distance, movement and quiet, and roughness and
softness.”

I just wanted to take a minute to say a huge thank you to Pottery Making Info!
What an honor to be named top blog of 2016 : )
(insert 20 minute long happy dance in my kitchen here)
And I was also recently listed as the third best in a list of 40 Ceramic Websites and Blogs on the Web by Feedspot.
It’s a honor to play a role in this community, to participate, to engage, to learn, and to be inspired by each of you. Thanks to all my readers. Seriously. It makes my year that little old me from Saskatoon can play a part in this international community of makers. You all give so much, inspire so many. I’m just thankful to be along for the ride.

I wouldn’t really classify myself as a PRO at anything. I’m stumbling through my life and career trying to figure things out as I go so I find it interesting when others ask to interview me as though I had some type of a system sorted out or special behind the scenes knowledge. The more I know, the more I realize how little I actually know about all things art and career related. But heck I love listening to others talk about the ins and outs of their careers so maybe you’ll like to have a listen to me talk about mine : )
Huge thanks to Jessica Watchorn for the interview it was super fun!
