Handmade ceramics always make your table more beautiful, and your meals more delicious.
I create small batch ceramic collections in my studio in Prince Edward County, Ontario, and sometimes from my satellite studio in Toronto. Colour is a passion, and I make a little bit of a lot of different things, because I get new ideas frequently, and like the challenge of figuring out what to do with them. So, if you see something here you like, best to nab it - as I may move on and never make that sort of thing again. I hope you will visit here often - there are always new Clayshapes coming out of my kiln. (If you click on the "Gallery" tab, above, you'll see what I mean).
Before becoming (totally) smitten with ceramics, I was a journalist and television producer. I had a 30-plus-years career of meeting and talking with a lot of interesting people, writing down or filming what they had to say, traveling all over the world and working with some pretty great crews. It was fun. But, strangely, I don't miss it. I like being "home" in my studio, playing with clay.
