I just can 't say how many times my pottery from this artist leaves a blissful impression on my guests or if a potluck, wherever I am entertaining when I use my oversized "spiral tailed salad-Cat-bowl" done in a soft creamy white and indigo blue glaze. Whimsy and function are happily married in each of these animal and nature-themed one of a kind pieces. Stopping by the studio I find many projects in progress including custom commissioned artpieces fashioned from a favorite photo of several four legged fur-babies. Beautiful indiginous leaf embossed pottery and flower imprints rich with earthy glazes round off these pieces with style and a wholotta artistic flair. If you are in Santa Cruz, I would make a point to see the work, studio and Artist. It's worth the ride for certain. (vases, clocks, crocks, bowls, containers, sealed vessels, plates, ceramic mosaic and much much more)
