HAND BUILT, FUNK-TIONAL PORCELAIN

I have been hand-building my unusual porcelain vessels since 2002. My pots run the gamut from mysterious, eerie and whimsical to tranquil and elegant. I create each pot as a one-of-a-kind piece although they may be part of a series of 10 to 20.
All of my porcelain pieces are created in my backyard studio I built myself, in Mission, Kansas, a suburb of Kansas City, Missouri. I share my unique Mission-style home with my daughter Fiona, my Scottish puppy dog, Duncan and the wild chipmunk, Chippy.
I come from a family of artists and I studied Art Education at the University of Missouri in Columbia. I have taught elementary art in Kansas City, Kansas for the past 31 years. My work and I can be found at art fairs within 300 miles (6 hours) of Kansas City.
