carving and smoothing wheel thrown vessels

Studio Process

I work at Clay Associates, a shared studio in Normal Heights of San Diego. I handbuild and wheelthrow my work. I make sculpture, tableware, and portraits. I gas fire to cone 10 reduction (and sometimes cone 7/8 oxidation). I use mostly stoneware and porcelain.
