Statement
The human form and animals inspire me. These subjects allow me to express how I observe human behavior. Drawing from my life experiences, I strive to tell a story in a satiric commentary. However, I do not want my story to interfere with the viewer's enjoyment of the piece. My desire is that those who look at my work interpret their own thoughts and feelings. Clay is the medium I utilize, because of its earthiness. Over and over I am amazed when my pieces come out of the kiln, and I remember it all began from a ball of clay.
