Welcome and thank you for visiting. Since 2007 I've been creating contemporary hand-carved ceramic trompe l'oeil birch tree teapots and sculptures in the tradition of Yixing, China.

WHAT'S GOING ON (updated 2/11/13)

Up next is The Smithsonian Craft Show in Washington in April 2013. I already am looking forward to seeing folks then.

After that is a solo show at Jason Jacques Gallery in Manhattan opening June 5th.

North Carolina has been very welcoming to me as a new artist. I'll have a piece in the North Carolina Museum of Art's auction in June and will participate in the prestigious invitational retail show at The Mint Museum in the Fall.

I have a new web site under construction that will allow for much easier viewing and will have lots of long-overdue work posted, including the new charred look of the Fireside series. Look for it in April.

As always I appreciate all the kind words you've sent my way.
