New work takes time to name and classify as one thing or another. These pieces are fresh out of the studio. Some clearly relate to earlier work, some seem not to. In time they will find their way into a new "collection" or "series." For now, here they are. Comments welcomed.

From shards of past works, new objects are remixed, each decision influencing the next. The fragments are sorted and classified while narratives are re-imagined. Linear elements suggest intuitive connections to the past work.
Dickeys present a false impression. Collars adorn, identify, and restrict. These dickeys and collars evoke or embody states of mind, situations, expectations, and memories.
Doilies
Combining imagery of the body and education reform matrices, these works focus on the disparity between reality and data, emphasizing that individual uniqueness confounds rigid systems and prescriptive standards.
Archetypal forms of containment and offering, pitchers, bowls, and kylixes are vehicles for the examination of body iconography, mythology, expectations, and memories. Underlying these inquiries is an examination of systems, expectations, and parameters.
Installations
Early work in installation using handmade ceramic units, emphasizing contemplative making, variation within a form, and time.
