I enjoy working with a variety of surfaces and firing methods. Soda, raku and saggar or low-fire salt fuming all allow the flame and the chemicals to play across the surface of the forms. My work includes hand-built and thrown forms, primarily experimenting with vessel shapes and bowls. I work with some of the same forms in raku clay and porcelain, firing them in all three methods. While many of my pieces are loaded with textures, some are smooth or given simple alterations to allow the flame and chemicals to interact.
