As a kid growing up in the early 60’s, I had a fascination with both pop-art and vintage wares. I’ve combined this love of clay, nature & design into my functional ceramics. I create image transfers using newsprint and underglaze. The prints are applied to my handmade stoneware ceramics. I use a combination of stamps, carving and transfers to create a whimsical and vintage appearance.
