About

I’m a Toronto native with a varied background in the fine arts. I spent the academic part of my artistic career at the Ontario College of Art, where I graduated in design, and the University of Guelph, where I obtained a Bachelor’s Degree majoring in Fine Art. As well as ceramics, my early work was in metal, where I worked as a sculptor.

I have returned to traditional wheel thrown ceramics, drawn to the technical discipline, creativity and stillness the work entails. I enjoy the potential of marrying commodity with delight and the tactile pleasure of drawing, tooling and working with clay and unpredictable glazes. My style reflects an admiration for Canadian potters Robin Hopper and Kayo O’Young, as well as Navajo artist Maria Martinez.

I’ve spent most of my life moving further out into the hinterland and am now at home here in the bucolic wilderness on the moraine, in a place that nourishes my spirit and inspires my work.
