Made By Hand Sold One at a Time
A rotating shelf of wheel-thrown and hand-built pieces from my home studio. Each one is unique, when it finds a home, it's gone for good.
This viral ceramic form has taken over social media. I documented its journey on Instagram as I am developing and iterating prototypes as I learn about the form and function. Made with stoneware, fired to cone 10. Dishwasher and microwave safe.
This collection of mugs, cups and small bowls uses a unique combinations of techniques and glaze to get the overall desired effect. All pieces are made with porcelain and fired to cone 10.
The pieces in this collection range from salt cellars to oil decanters. They were celebrated to celebrate maritime culture with a bold range of glazes and surface textures. This year Seafest celebrates its 10th anniversary in Bellingham.
Gas reduction fired, stoneware cone 6. Stamps include neolithic inspired ‘serpent’ motifs.

Art has been part of my life as long as education has. I won a National Scholastic Arts Silver Key in college, studied history and visual culture at Temple University, and have been making things with my hands ever since. The studio is where I go to think differently and create.
The studio is often where I draw upon various techniques, mediums and stories. I’m drawn to ancient, often Neolithic imagery representing mothers and goddesses.
I live and work in Bellingham, Washington, where life is literally among the wild things AKA my two, tiny toddlers. Our life is whimsical, messy and beautiful all at once. You can often find me at community studios that offer alternative firing techniques throughout Whatcom County.
Currently, I collaborate with Burnish Clay Studio in Bellingham, WA and the Jansen in Lynden, WA. I’m grateful for art friends and inspiration.

My functional work is made to be used: bowls, cups, and vessels that belong on tables and in hands, that accumulate the quiet evidence of daily life.
Original pieces available by inquiry.

I paint in oil, watercolor, and pastel, and make prints across multiple media.
