| My Artist Statement |
My works are mostly utilitarian – Plates, Cups, Bowls, Vases etc. I also do some Judaica and Jewelry.The decoration of these works is much influenced by ethnic designs.
I work mainly with stoneware and porcelain and fire my works in an electric kiln to approximately 1220º C.     For decorating my works I use mainly the Sgraffito method. Colored engobs are painted over the pots and then carved to expose parts of each pot’s body underneath. Other colorful decorations are used as well.
