When I was a kid my mother would let me stay home from school if she was doing something interesting like choosing wallpaper for the house, going to pick up art supplies, or to a big fabric store. She took me along on several adventures in art making and interior decorating and I loved it so much more than all the waiting in lines in school. Now, having spent my whole life making things and dreaming of what could be made I’ve been focusing on clay. Clay is such a brilliant material for creating objects from your imagination. When I work on items for the home I focus on decorative tableware like candle and flower holders that add ambiance and interest, a little bit of art and nature to an everyday table setting.
