Ceramic Studio in Cave Creek! Born deaf, and early deaths in the family jump started my focus to be a full-time clay artist by age 20. Being visually oriented, I love to muscle my way around stoneware clay to express beauty found in nature. As a daughter of an architect, I value positive and negative space seen within sculpture. Ceramic medium allows for textural, functional, or abstract forms of beauty. The scale can be intimate or monumental. Studio Terra Nova has done 490 kiln firings using a 28 cubic feet gas kiln in 800 square foot studio in Saint Louis. Art sold is over 1450 sculptures. I have collaborated with clients and their dreams for their space since 1988, counting thirty-three years. Now, in 2022, I am blessed with a second 600 square foot studio in north of Scottsdale with a Bailey kiln 54 cubic feet. Always glad to wake up each day to continue the process of transforming yours-mine vision via clay into reality.
