Creativity is a kind of self-care for me. While others might find meditation, exercise, bread baking or cleaning closets helpful, I find it therapeutic to be productive and stretch my creative abilities.
It's hard for me to really consider myself an artist (fun fact: I almost failed a studio drawing class in college where my nudes barely resembled humans) because I can't produce traditional drawings. Instead, I love mixed media, collages and ceramics. These mediums allow me flexibility. There is really no such thing as perfect. And, for those that know me, I am far from that. Instead, my work, just like me, is imperfect. You could almost say my style
is a little warp, wobble or whatever - but, it is, undoubtedly hand-made!
I’ve always wanted my pottery, and all my creative endeavors, to be a resite from the outside world and any ills, sadness or problems that inevitably exist.
I like to use color, whimsy, floral and a little bit of playfulness in my work so that it makes me - and others - smile.
I am also inspired to give back and have used my pottery to make donations to causes important to me as a way of trying to make a small dIfference.
Thanks for visiting and being part of my journey.
