Porcelain with
nothing to prove.
Wavy bowls, lily sculptures, and hand-sculpted chess sets — each piece is shaped slowly, one hour at a time.
Handmade in Nashville
Wavy bowls, lily sculptures, and hand-sculpted chess sets — each piece is shaped slowly, one hour at a time.
Somewhere between control and collapse
I make porcelain bowls by hand — folded, smoothed, and usually left unglazed. Forms drift, edges curl, walls lean. Nothing is quite symmetrical.
Each piece takes about 25 hours to coax into shape: forming, refining, and firing.
The work happens at a community studio in Nashville.

Each piece is one of a kind. Once it's gone, it's gone. Commissions welcome.
How they're made
Porcelain is wedged until all the bubbles are gone and the clay becomes elastic, responsive, and ready.
All the pieces are hand-formed, folded, and curved. The way the porcelain behaves is different every time.
Walls are smoothed and thinned, edges are softened. Some will break, some will be abandoned. The best ones make it into the kiln.
Typically I'll just bisque fire the bowls. Unglazed porcelain has a softness that doesn't need any embellishments.
