“This body of work features a series of colorful functional ceramic wares and sculptures that aim to invite and honor acts of healing, creative play, and the inner child. The work represents my process and celebrates art making as an exploration and love for sacred and quirky moments, the unknown, rainbows meeting earth, the inner connectivity of all things, imperfection and the beauty, discovery, pain, and magic that comes with these.   

My work is utilitarian, focuses on the connectivity and importance of the handmade, slowing down, self-expression, the metaphysical, creative play, healing, and community. Closely related to my creative process and the basis of my work being nature, is my Reiki practice.  Each work of art is infused with Reiki, a Japanese healing technique, which I have been practicing daily for over fifteen years. My love and passion for both tea and recycling is also present in the work. Tea is added to the wet clay which then burns out, leaving what I like to call a healing memory mark. ”
