I am currently exploring the addition of
nichrome wire to my wheel thrown work. This high fire wire is
inserted at the leather hard stage then fired in my gas kiln to
2300 degrees. This process adds dimensionality,texture and a mixed
media effect. Continuing my quest for intriguing surfaces, I am
working with layered Mason stains and trimming with a wire brush.
My slip cast work continues to be inspired by found objects, poetry
and the juxtaposing of seemingly disparate patterns, images and
themes.
