HURRICANE HELENE UPDATE:
April 2025 Update:
We are currently looking for what will become our new studio home, but also still working out of temporary spaces at Plays in Mud Pottery and in Tim Kerns studio in Oakley. Work also progresses on a new wholesale line that will be launched late Spring, while small batch special orders and commissions are being made. As we are focusing on firing in oxidation kilns for our rebuild, we are testing new clays and new glazes. A painstakingly slow process but one that does have wonderful spurts of satisfacton and great promise. Hopefully we will soon be planning our new space, but stay tuned for glimpses of the new work!

New commissions are limited while we are in temporary spaces, but feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss an order. Salvaged work* is currently available at the Plays in Mud Gallery at 735C Haywood Road in West Asheville, and I will be adding other salvaged work to my website as soon as I can*. And if you'd like to keep up with our developments, scroll to the bottom of the page to sign up for our newsletter!
*Salvaged work includes reduction fired work that was salvaged from my previous gallery, as well as salvaged, bisque-fired work that was fired in reduction at the end of last year. The new line in development will be fired in oxidation (electric kilns), so I will not be immediately returning to my glazes and designs done in reduction. All to say, any reduction fired work purchased from the 'salvage collection' will not necessarily be what I return to when I return to reduction fired works. Then again, it might, only time will tell!

Serviceware for Home & Professional Kitchens
I love working with creative chefs and food professionals to design work that results in beautiful canvases for their creations or strong brand ambassadors. Every piece is individually hand made, finished, and glazed. Click for more examples , including dinnerware, and information on wholesale...
Flameware
FLAMEWARE NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE. Flameware clay is specially formulated to resist the shock of an open flame and it has exceptional heat retaining properties. What that means is pieces made in this clay can be used in the oven and directly on top of the stove, on gas flame or electric burners. Read more here...
Vincent Series
Textures, both tactile and visual, inform much of my studio work. The Vincent Series is inspired by the textural elements of Vincent Van Gogh's works. Read more here...
