From Earth
Clay particles have memory and the origins are ancient. They have their own history in addition to the story and mood of the finished piece. Clay, slips and glazes determine the outcome of a piece.
A story is told
Each piece portrays a mixture of mood and symbolism enhanced by elements of ancient art and architecture of Greece, Italy, Spain and Mexico.
