Wood fired Work
Wood fired pottery is exactly what it sounds like. Pottery fired in a kiln where the combustion material is wood. Chords and chords of firewood are "fed" and "stirred" into a kiln to slowly build up a thick layer of ash (wood ash) along the surface of pieces inside the kiln, and then as the temperature in the kiln continues to rise, the ash melts, bonding with the glaze and clay creating unmistakable earthy surfaces, textures, and colors.

Puzzle Piece Series
I started researching ways to “rebuild” or rather to express the nature of “rebuilt”. This is probably the point where material study became so important to me, and it is defiantly the point where I started to realize I needed more than ceramics to repair ceramics. The piecing togeather, and rebirth of these pieces started to lay the ground work for my research into expressing emotional states.
