Bio
I grew up in northern New Mexico in a small town called Taos. I lived on a ranch and raised chickens, lambs, dogs, and horses from a young age. Hands, cat whiskers, moss, patterns, teeth, and small things fascinate me. Besides clay, I am also interested in cooking, reading, cloud watching, flowers, and making my own clothes.
Artist Statement
My work is defined by process and the sentimental experience of interacting with precious items on a daily basis. Whether this is the intimacy of touching a handmade vessel to your lips, or learning the way the light of day plays over a sculpture in your home. My canvases take on many forms, ranging from the utilitarian to purely decorative. My surfaces, decorations, and paintings are driven by the sensation of balance; when to add more and when to remove it completely.
