I’ve lived in Philadelphia since 1985 and started making work again in clay in 2009. Since 2012 I’ve been in my studio at the Crane Old School, which has a kiln room in the basement thanks to Nick Kripal. 

 

I’m a pretty active maker, going between abstract, geometric, sculptural work, and then making architectural models and stuff that can be used. For a long time I almost only used high-fire porcelain, the whiter and smoother the better. Then during my residency at Glenn Foerd in 2019, I started using a dark brown stoneware (Standard 266), and adding underglaze color to it. Right now I’m making pictures with these materials, and spend a lot of time on color.
