I am inspired by the shifting seasons, the land, sky and shorelines that surround where I

live in Prince Edward County. The process of making with clay is not unlike the forces of

nature. It is a constant reminder of transformation and regeneration. Nature is a

magnificent model, the immediate muse of my designs and imaginings. I try to connect,

redefine and celebrate in a gesture. My mark making and forms conjure memories of

colour, event, sightline or memento held. To construct out of clay, not the literal but

metaphysical moment, that is what I intend. Making sense of connecting to the land and

verifying my love and exploration of ceramics.
