Bird Portrait Series

"These works honor our local birds. The 'frames' have impressions from their habitats."

 

Extinct Bird Series

"In this series, birds that are now extinct are depicted on pottery forms similar to the ones being made in America at a time when these birds were still thriving. The names of the birds are stamped into the clay the way the Early American pottery company names were stamped. The back sides of some of the pieces show the birds as they can be found in the drawers of natural history museums today -- stuffed and with tags on their feet."

 

Tree Vases Series

“The tree vases are inspired in part by the Arts and Crafts Era tree vases. The cylindrical forms suggest the tree trunks. Some of the forms, like the Aspen Vase and Sycamore Vase, are deliberately manipulated to be a little bent and irregular like the trees depicted. Some also have a couple of hidden birds that one might see in those trees. The Pine Forest has some other hidden animals.”

 

Bird Cups

"The names of the birds are inscribed on the bottom of each cup. There is a bird on each side, usually a male and a female, sometimes an immature version of the bird is on one side."
