My clayworks have evolved over the last few years, although possibly in subtle ways. I still explore the way glaze reacts with the porcelain and with other glazes and oxide enhanced slips. Copper red, crystalline matte and celadon glazes are still a study of mine; consistency always elusive. The translucency of very thin wheel thrown and slab constructed porcelain is a tool I use with lighting fixtures, window tiles and cups. My engineering background, archeology interests, and even the current political scene may all meld in a drawing or landscape on a platter, teapot or sushi tray. My brushed and incised landscapes have grown to be a metaphor on human relationships, which may be disguised within the details.
