Biography
After many years as a mosaic artist using commercial tile, I briefly worked at a handmade tile studio in Ashland, OR learning to create handmade tiles for public mosaic art. This led me to play more with clay and carving, and eventually into where I am today - making one-of-a-kind functional dishware and whimsical sculptures.
