Wheel thrown pottery.
One of a kind pieces, I like to try different ways of decorating, pressed images, scraffito, slip drawing, or just plain glaze experimentation.
I love texure, so it usually shows up here and there.

The Pottery
You can bake in the bowls and the pots look great either by themselves or with plants in them.
We use ours as fruit bowls and salad bowls
They look great on a table !
The hand made pieces are slab and extruder constructed.
One of a kind pieces that can be functional or non functional, decorative is fine.
Terracotta clay was used for all vessals on this page.
