1. A piece I've tentatively titled "WR," was made to fulfill an assignment in which I was to tell a story, evoke a feeling, and convey meaning without using any form of text. This piece really is the beginning of something creatively for me. I have since continued re-creating natural elements out of clay, firstly leaves, then mushrooms, then teeth, then antlers, more leaves, branches, more mushrooms. I see this being a constant in my work. I am constantly inspired by nature and the shapes and forms created by Mother Nature, I know I'm gooey and sentimental but the world is full of beauty, and that is how I feel.
2. Detail shot, I feel like I learned a lot from this piece. I played around with inlaying a different clay body, I moved the piece from wall to table top then back to wall, I experimented with glazes and incorporated mixed media elements. Evolution, within myself and my work, is the lesson I am learning.
3. Mushrooms. They are melancholy little guys with drooping heads and bad posture. I experimented with and fell in love with oxides in the process. Definitely not done with them yet.
4. Latest nature series. Much more work to come.
