Artist Statement
I fell in love with pottery in 2016. It was love at first touch. The moment my hands met the clay on the wheel, something in my brain ignited. I knew I had crossed a point of no return.
Art has always been a constant presence in my life. I studied graphic design, but over the years, I’ve explored a variety of mediums, such as airbrush, painting, and photography, among others. While each form taught me something valuable, none have moved me the way pottery does.
I’m drawn to experimentation, particularly with shapes and glazes, but much of my work is guided by the energy that surrounds us. I strive to create organic and dynamic pieces that infuse a sense of movement and light into the spaces they inhabit. My hope is that they serve as quiet reminders of the interconnectedness of all things.

Artist Statement
I work with semi-porcelain because it is a white background for my paint work. I studied porcelain decoration in Arita, Japan with master Imaemon 13th. The nature is my inspiration. I have been a potter for 50 years and still trying to master my work.

Artist Statement
I have always been interested in the arts, and ceramics have become my canvas as an artist. I love the feeling of taking a piece of clay, something raw and from the earth and transforming it into something beautiful and functional. I love it when people find a piece that speaks to them. They pick it up, touch it, and try to picture it in their life. That gives me pleasure. I watch them consider whether it fits, for themselves or as a gift and I am satisfied...even if they don’t take it home.
I love making vessels, bowls, carafes, cups. They can be practical and functional or decorative. I love making enclosed forms that can be shaped and altered to suit my vision. I focus on the design, the form, the volume, the surface in all my pieces. I choose my palette based on the seasons, with brighter, cheerful colours for spring and summer and moodier, darker colours for fall and winter.
There are worlds of possibilities in one piece of clay. I spend my dreamtime exploring those possibilities and my daytime making them happen.
