I make functional pottery in an effort to preserve local culture in a throw-away society. My main goal is to inspire other people to make their own creative work. Human beings have always worked with their hands. We need both creativity and Nature to be healthy and whole human beings. Making and using handmade pottery is one way to bring Nature and culture together in human life. I intend my work to affect people who use it the way the green countryside affects someone who normally lives in the city: The fresh air and the green of the trees and grasses restores the soul and refreshes the spirit. If my work can do this, in a humble way, it is sucessful in my mind.
