A teapot holds and gives; brews a routine, creates a comfort, and can take center stage when jovial play is in the air. Functional vessels are essential and additionally create a larger, richer, visual context to our daily lives. In our fast paced world, they create a moment to slow down, and connect with those around us in the present and in the past, and with ourselves. I primarily create vessels by utilizing a potters wheel and hand-building techniques. The work I tend to gravitate toward making encompasses some part with the idea of service ware. Objects like teapots, pitchers, cups, jars, and plates. All of these objects have an intentional purpose but also engage space in different ways. Its objective use is one, while additionally in context to whatever piece it is with, how we come to interact with it, and in regards to where we find ourselves in the world. Functionality is readily acceptable in a home and creates a common ground to be able to further convey the matters of my heart and mind. The work becomes a place where past dreams can live; textile designer, music composer, painter; and open up to the nuances of what, where, and how we experience readily and in the tea party's of our childhood mind.
