A sculptor creating art that reminds humans that we are nature and nature is us

These days I mostly use clay to create colorful & playful objects inspired by the interconnection of nature, joy of flowers, and humor of animals. 

Currently, just completed a new body of ceramic work called Ecological Vessels for a show at the Cleveland Botanical Gardens open through October 30th, 2025. 

Living and working in Northeast Ohio, I enjoy bringing the joy of clay to students of all ages and abilities as a teaching artist. As a designer, I make functional neti pots under B. Swell Ceramics.

My long term artmaking goal is to figure out how to bring my ceramic craft skills back to the more experimental mixed media explorations from earlier in my career.
