About Me

Introduction

I am a potter working in Regina, Saskatchewan.  I consider myself a cultural worker.  Clay has been central to my existence for over 35 years.  I make pieces that speak to our everyday existence inspired by the world outside.

What I Love about Ceramics

I love the process of starting with a malleable material and taking it through the cycle of change from clay to a ceramic piece. There is always risk with clay, but that is what is exciting.

How I started with ceramics

My first experience with clay was at the Extension Department, University of Regina  in community classes.   I took classes there for a few years.  It was a great community of potters .  I fell in love with it there. Working as a studio assistant and then an instructor helped me to hone my craft.

What inspires me

Nature is my biggest inspiration.

What I'm working on at the moment

At the moment I am working on developing work using Cone 6 stoneware and porcelain, exploring more pared down surfaces and forms.
