I work in the medium of stoneware clay and make hand-built pottery, primitive sculpture, hamsas, and a variety of other forms. My work celebrates and pushes the plasticity of the medium. The content of the work follows an inner landscape of biological obsessions, psychic damage, and bouncy cartoon animals.
Contact me if you see something you want to own or you want to commission me to make something for you.

Beholder 14
This is Beholder 14, another beholder with teeth in relief instead of an actual mouth cavity with dozens of needle-like teeth.



Menorah with Spirals
This is my first menorah of the year. The spiral pattern is from a Halloween candle of the female monster from The Bride of Frankenstein.

Unfortunately, due to a random kiln accident, it's probably not salable. Another piece was placed too close to it in the glaze kiln and became fused to it. That beige blob is my initials and the white dot in the upper left corner of the initials is where I had to pry the other piece off of it. It was very sharp and it made me bleed.

Kalbon the Cambion Devil
This is my miniature of Kalbon, a Cambion devil and one of the main villains in Beyond the Crystal Cave. Actually, Kalbon is the consort of the main villain, the hag Soryth.
The mini is off model for a cambion devil, but I wanted to use the ape mold for the face. It makes him seem more bestial and vicious than a more humanoid design would.

Toothy Grin
I've been making teeth with small cones of clay cemented into place in wide grinning mouths using clay slip. It's tedious and difficult to paint, but it does result in a severely toothy mouth. I was looking at this Scary Pumpkin Mug by Deviantart user CorazondeDios. I decided to try her method of making teeth.

This is the result: a Toothy Grin wall hanging.

Here it is hanging in the bathroom with Chamsa 44, the Waffle Chamsa:

Unfired Otyugh
I took a break from the beholders and made an otyugh, a D&D monster than looks something like a pile of garbage with an irregular jagged slash for a mouth and spiked tentacles. This one came out too cute for my taste. I think it's the legs. It looks like a slightly toothier version of one of those Mr. Men characters.

And this is another menorah, although the old lady in the synagogue gift shop said that Orthodox Jews can't use menorahs if the candles (except for the shammus) aren't all on the same level. I, apparently, was the (half-) Jew who didn't deserve to led out of Egypt.

Ent #2
This is my second ent/treant,

based on this digital image by SirJarva on deviantart.

I didn't bother trying to replicate the lush foliage, but I'm going to make up for it plugging some broccoli into its hole.

$87 Sale
Yesterday, someone bought four of my pieces in the studio gallery. I was pleasantly surprised to hear that they weren't chamsas. Here is the sales slip. The total came to $87 before tax and I get 70% of that.

The pieces that I sold were:
Beholder #10, the beholder necklace, $19.

Cat Head Necklace 3, $19.

The Cuntlog, $29. I'm surprised I priced it that high. I thought I had it there because I was trying to get rid of it.

Cat Column with Maggots for Eyes, $20.
