Statement
A great challenge for me is to be involved with clay as a true craftsman and not to withhold from its practice. Each challenge is approached with the same poise, impulses, fears, strengths, weaknesses and awarenesses that I as an individual possess. It is my hope that the products of my labor will infuse, emerge and reflect my life's energy and spirit.
Each day is approached as a part of a continuum of ideas and concerns. One builds upon the other as a part of structure that is at times difficult to comprehend or justify. Sometimes the work is by conviction and belief rather than reason or intellect. As in all things there seems to be no plan that assures success.
The core response to create because you can do nothing else, not as a part of life but as life itself is a realization of truth.
