Creative pursuits have been a lifelong passion. I also love encouraging others to create art. I draw and paint but my real passion is ceramic arts. I have taken many classes but a lot of my experience has come from exploring the possibilities of the medium at the Ah Haa School for the Arts, and teaching children and adults. I currently spend a lot of time on surface design carving images into the clay that bring me joy or peace. One of the things that makes the ceramic medium special is that after the art is created it will be used, held, and washed on a regular basis, and become part of someone’s life. There is magic in turning mud into something timeless and beautiful.

I am so grateful to parent twins in the mountains of Southwest Colorado.
