| Raku horsehair pots are fired quickly
to 1200F degrees and are then taken out of a Raku kiln and
placed on a noncombustible surface. Hair from a horse's tail or
mane is then laid upon the hot pottery... |
These vessels are handbuilt from
slabs of clay and the Raku fired: an ancient firing technique
developed by the Japanese... |
These vessels are decorated with
Ancient Chinese Characters. Out of more than 80,000 symbols in
the Chinese language, I chose to use on my pieces 14 that I find
represent important aspects of life... |
These necklaces and pins are made by
using slabs of clay that are cut out into various forms... |

exactly alike), there is something different about these
items. Many of them are exploratory in nature... |
