Hey, It’s nice to have you here.

I make one-of-a-kind hand sculpted insects and graphic ceramic platters. For my ever evolving series, Insecta, I use clay and glazes to make whimsical ceramic sculptures of loveable (also creepy) bugs.

I am both fascinated and repelled by insects. Big eyes (bug eyes!), strange-to-us bodies, ever-moving antennae, wings that threaten unpredictable flight, and So Many Legs. They are animals of luminous texture, and a wild, unfathomable array of shapes and sizes. I am inspired by their evolution, resilience, and beauty. I want my bug sculptures to help us push past discomfort and bias, to find joy and levity in what is unusual and different. To stay connected and curious about the world.

I love hearing from you, please send me a note or say hi at one of these local shows:
