"Horsehair feather vase. Raku ceramic vase. Contemporary rustic décor." Sculpture

My strongest inspiration comes from Mother nature and its influences on the shape of plants and animals, trees and rocks, both on land and underwater. New techniques and forms continually stimulate my interest in clay. The process of integrating various media with clay, like metal wire, stones, sand and wood to create dynamics has a great appeal to me. It is fascinating to take something essentially flat and turn it into organic form with volume creating a synergy between layered color, texture and movement. My favorite firing method is raku but I also use high fire with reduction process and oxidation process.
