Spring is in the air. Hand pinched stoneware plate. 6.75” x 1”.

Porcelain rocking bowls, hand pinched — such an elemental handbuilding technique and so time intensive. I love the back to basics quality of making these bowls and try to elevate the simple form by thinning the walls as much as I can, refining the rims and finger-smoothing the hand dimpled surface for a natural undulating texture.

In the Orcas library case this January, a sampling of my ceramic work, from early pieces I made in Singapore, one of a kind experiments that I have kept and works in current fav forms and textures. It was a good exercise to gather these together and notice the thread or ‘voice’ running through my art practice over time and place. Please stop by the @orcaslibrary and have a peek when you get the chance. Thanks to the library for making space to show artwork year round!
