Elegant functional and sculptural reduction fired stoneware, wheel thrown and hand built, with added elements of caning, wisteria vine, twigs and wire. I am inspired by Japanese and Korean pottery, with Scandinavian influence of form and function. My functional work includes teapots, lamps, bowls, cups and plates, the sculptural side is hanging sculptures and faces. All fun and beautiful!
