Artist’s Statement: I live on a working century farm in picturesque Washington County, Oregon where our family has resided for 120 years. I am inspired by the colors, textures, and wildlife out my back door. After retiring from my career as a Labor and Delivery Nurse for 30 years, I returned to my first love, throwing pottery. It as a way to reconnect with my creative side. I think of throwing pottery as playing in the mud alongside my mother, who was a talented oil painter and nurse. My pottery reflects my experiences on the farm, my family, and my community. I make pieces to be used, to be shared, to be enjoyed during all the special moments of life. I want my pieces to become part of your family and help preserve memories for the next generation.
