A woman with a checked shirt shows her sculpture of a flower on a blue turntable, in a pottery studio with shelves and art supplies in the background.

I handbuild ceramics- flowers, animals, birds, all kinds of things.

I also watercolor - beaches, people, animals.

And in both media, I confess a thing for birds.

Once I was that kid with a book in her hands. Now I sketch, paint, make things out of clay.

Enjoy.

I make delicate flowers into something permanent and beautiful.

California Quail

For some reason, I became fascinated by this bird. Painting him took forever. The feathers in his topknot are actual California quail feathers from a responsible breeder. The result was amazing.
