The perfection of the natural world is the springboard for my clay art work. For many years I have been richly inspired and continuously mesmerized by the world of insects. The more that I investigate, the more beautiful and profound this fascinating and tragically villainized
world becomes. My art work is a reflection of the intricate, interconnected, intriguing and lively world of our insect relations. My most recent work "The Balancing Beetle Series" pays homage to the delicate balance that we (humans) strike with the world of insects. Creatures that we depend on (be it unknowingly) for our very survival.

My ceramic work is primarily decorative rather than functional. Forms are mathematically configured with attention to their structure and use, both as individual objects and part of a larger grouping. I consider how the theme of each object will interact to form a family grouping with another.
My current work focuses on personal shrines. It is a visual exploration of my experience in living in different places and transporting my “stuff”, both physical and mental, from one to the next. What do we hold dear? Why do we keep it? and Who is responsible for the baggage? These are the questions that I think of as each new piece emerges.
