I am a German American and have been living and working in the United States for over 30 years experimenting with wheel throwing and hand building projects.
In 2020 I started ceramic decorating techniques in order to bring color and life to the daunting and disrupting COVID-19 pandemic.
This clay work is intended to reflect joyful objects in helping to better navigate through these unsettling and challenging times.
I believe in the beauty of handmade objects. Once the clay is bone-dry I apply underglazes for surface decoration using ball stylus dotting tools and other materials. The intricate application of the underglazes is a deliberate attempt at slowing down, being in the moment, connecting to something deeper, and taking time to appreciate the awards of labor. The process-oriented journey is an important component of my work.
All ceramic pieces are fired at low temperature in order to keep the vibrant rich colors and avoid burnout. Many of the hearts are filled ceramic beads.
