Commission Gallery
Creating a commission piece is an organic process, from original sketches to final hand delivery. It brings me joy to work with my clients and collaborate creatively on the final vision of a piece. Each ceramic piece is individually handmade and fired in my studio. I am drawn to incorporating organic natured materials that offer texture found in natural fibers and textiles. I work within a range of clay bodies to achieve a cohesive piece, from porcelain to a variety of hues in stoneware.
Porcelain Waterfall
Dimensions: 2 1/4" L X 4' H
My pieces are inspired by nature and landscapes of this beautiful earth. Each piece is an extension of my soul and how I view the majesty of the space we are gifted to live and breathe.
Moon Rising
Dimensions: 13" W X 34" H
Form, texture, shadow, and sound all play a role in the creation of my pieces. My intention is to express a sense of peace, tranquility, and interest through each shape, texture, gradation and harmony of neutrals.
Sandstone Waterfall
Dimensions: 20"W X 36"H
Each piece is unique and speaks to the clay body chosen for its intended environment. Stoneware has a grit and sand to it that breaths an easy casualness to it. Stoneware can be found in a variety of colors, individual pieces and colors can be mixed to create interest, and a cohesive color palette. Raw, unglazed clay creates a beautiful texture and can be washed with a translucent layer for a two tone effect.
Moon Shadow
Dimensions: 12" W X 40" H
A variety of glazes can elevate a piece as well as create texture and interest. Glazes can create a mood of elegance when shiny or a casual understated sophistication when fired in a matte hue.
Timeless Toroid
Dimensions: 9"W X 30"H
The circle is a universal symbol with extensive meaning. It represents the notions of totality, wholeness, original perfection, the Self, the infinite, eternity, timelessness, all cyclic movement, and God. A very meaningful shape when considering a commission piece to adorn a home or business.

Dimensions: 13"W X 34" H
Pricing is based upon the size and difficulty of the piece. Once we connect, discuss the project in detail and timeline, I will submit a personalized commission work order. Generally original commission pieces require 10 weeks; however, 8 weeks can be accommodated for a 25% rush fee depending on the scope of the project.
