The best thing about clay is that creating with it, for a hundred or a thousand years, still would not be long enough to absorb all the techniques and styles.

“Pottery Pleasures” is the name of my studio and it is in our backyard in Langley. It was built with the support of family and friends and my wheel faces a large sliding glass door from which I can enjoy the view of our decks, trees and the ever-changing seasons. Many times these views are reflected in my art.

My pottery is fired to cone 5 in an electric kiln. With three very good friends, whom I met taking the Ceramic Fine Art classes at Kwantlen in the early 90’s, I continue to take classes, sell pottery at our two annual sales and raku vessels, murals and masks. We also had the incredible experience of traveling with other potters on a Pottery & Archaelogy Tour of South-West England for two weeks & we hope to do trips to various areas on a regular basis with pottery being the theme.

Opportunities to enter juried and theme shows as a member of the Fraser Valley Potters Guild (see Glaze Forum link), the Potters Guild of BC, the Fort Langley Artists Group and the Langley Arts Council helps me to "think outside of the box"! I enjoy the stimulation of other potters and artists, whether it engages me in making functional ware or art.
