Favorite Time of the Year

7/14/2020

Every winter, what a complainer I can be. Winter is freakin' six - or seven - months long. Zillow! Where else could we live? Icy sidewalks, hate this, on and on. At a certain point, I get tired of hearing me and adjust to reality. But, wow, summer, even hot summers like this month: harvesting vegetables, picking bouquets, smelling the earth, eating breakfast outside, early morning dogs-and-me walks, thunderheads lit gold in the sunset, chanting cicadas. We don't deserve any of this. It's all a gift.

All you see above (except for the bacon) came from our little "farm" (yard) in the city.

o happy clay!

I spent many hours as a child poring over fairy tales books and copying the illustrations. And having grown up in a large family with no room for clutter, I came to appreciate things that were both functional and beautiful. My studio is in the middle of my organic garden. Between gardening and working with clay, it seems like my hands are never clean!

Before ceramics, I spent twenty-five years in fine art and graphic art, including ten years as a sign painter. My work has won several awards, is in galleries across the country, and has been exhibited in national shows.
