About Me
As a 5 year old I found gray clay in our backyard. When I held it in my hands, there was just one thing I wanted to do; shape something out of it.
I have deep admiration for nature’s vitality. It draws me into the creation process.
My ceramics invite you to come closer, to touch, experience and connect.
