Oregon Public Broadcasting. Oregon Art Beat, 2009 & 2010

The above video was aired on OPB Oregon Art Beat a few times in 2009 and 2010.  They interviewed and filmed me in my studio and home.  My work has change quite a bit since then. I was just beginning to add china paint to my work and I kept the color subtle. I have since moved to a richer color pallet. I also moved somewhat away from wall figural work to free standing  sculpture. Throughout my career I have allowed myself the freedom to move to new artistic expressions when I feel that I have reached a plateau with an idea or line of work.  It keeps the work alive and joyful for  me

In real time. 

Almost finished staining. After some more shading in the background it will be ready for the second kiln firing.
