"My work in clay is an experiment, with a sense of whimsy. I often address the ball of clay, asking who or what it will be at the end." |

About Mark...
I love making teapots and canisters that look like they are from Alice in Wonderland. I hand build much of my work in the winter and throw in the warm months. I get some of the crookedness in my pots by dropping them. My glaze combinations have been developed for nearly 20 years and yet it’s still a crapshoot on what comes out of the kiln. Never a dull moment in the pottery shed!
