Pottery for us is a way of life. A lifestyle we cherish greatly. We strive to make each final piece the best it can be. Taking great care and consideration to each material, process, tool and technique that we use. We give our all into our craft and in doing so some part of us goes into the work as well.

Making wheel-thrown, functional pottery for 40 years. Figurative drawings are featured on the earthenware clay vessels using slips, etched surfaces, and brush work. Glazes and slips give more depth to the surface.
