Artist Statement
Through my love of nature, flora and clay I have developed a distinctive style in my currant work that combines the delicate beauty of flowers with the strength and versatility of ceramics. My wall hangings depict an array of captivating floral compositions, meticulously handcrafted with intricate details and vibrant colors. Each piece evokes a sense of organic elegance, bringing a touch of nature indoors through the skillful manipulation of clay. The resulting wall hangings offer a harmonious blend of form and texture, striving to truly captivate viewers with their depth and three-dimensional presence.
