| Bio |
 I am a studio potter presently living in Harrison County, Indiana. My family’s
roots are in the deep south: I was born in the Northeast and as a young man spent
a lot of time in the Rocky Mountain west. I moved to Louisville to study in 1987.
It was here that I became involved with a community of ceramic artists and realized
that working with clay, people and ideas was my vocation. Pursuing development
as an artist led me to many places, Louisville, now forty five minutes by auto,
has remained home base.
In the fall of 2003 I bought a small home on a beautiful river with large limestone
bluffs. I built a large soda kiln and now have a beautiful place to work! This
is a period of time to be rooted y the river and to unpack and digest the varied
adventures and influences I have experienced.
