ARTIST STATEMENT
Art has always been part of my life, but, and there was always a but, it was not something that I did, it was something I looked at, bought or sold. It was something I surrounded myself with but never created. I realized, eventually, that there was a desire to do more, a desire to do, rather than just consume.
I have found that ceramics is the method in which I want to do. It allows me to turn my visions into reality. Giving structure to my vision in clay and glaze.
My pieces seek to express no secrets, there are no messages to be deciphered, no puzzle to be worked out, no questions to be answered – they are what they are, hopefully pleasing to the eye, desirable, if I am lucky: beautiful.
The ideas that are needed in the creation of my pieces are not complex, but simple: form and volume, colour and texture, rough and smooth. From these things a universe can be created, a daydream realized, a thought made solid.
