summer 2026 workshop series
Summer 2023: Ubud, Bali. 2 Week ceramic workshop. Gaya Ceramic Arts Center.
This summer I’ll be teaching three ceramic workshops centered on surface, story, and curious forms.
We’ll explore ways of drawing on clay; layering transfers, lines, color, and pattern to create work that feels playful, personal, and a little unruly.
Join me in Italy, Cape Cod, or San Mateo for immersive studio time filled with experimentation, conversation, and the joy of making together.

Clay holds time, pressure, and touch.
Drawing is at the center of everything I make.
I create functional pottery, wall works, and sculpture, layering hand-drawn imagery onto clay surfaces and forms. My work explores the shifting boundary between architecture and landscape, structure and collapse, use and observation. These are objects for daily rituals and quiet looking, where drawing becomes surface, and surface becomes story.
I am interested in human connection and our relationship to the landscape. How does love, struggle and memory internally coalesce as layered stories through clay, drawings and found objects?
