“I am a full-time ceramic artist. I create and design my contemporary Raku vessels, wheel-thrown and alter the form. I also hand-build from slab to create shapes. I build my own Raku kiln and I fired all my own work. To find one's true talent is one of the most important and difficult things in life. Working with clay comes very natural to me. It is my intention to pursue excellence through my art.” Education Mohawk College Ceramic Courses and attended numerous workshops, Hamilton, ON Primarily self-taught Exhibitions 2007 Tea Four Two, Petroff Gallery, Toronto, ON 2006 Ceramic Exhibition, The Guild Shop, Toronto, ON Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition, Toronto, ON Joint Exhibition with "Connection Fibre Artists in dialogue" 2006 Hamilton Potter's Guild Biennial Exhibition, Hamilton, ON Biennial Exhibition, Hamilton Potter's Guild, Hamilton, ON Designer Crafts, The Hamilton & Region Arts Council and the Carnegie Gallery Juried Exhibition, Hamilton, ON 2005 Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition, Toronto, ON 2005 Ceramic Exhibition, The Guild Shop, Toronto, ON 2004 Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition, Toronto, ON Biennial Exhibition, Toronto Potter's Guild, Toronto, ON Designer Crafts, The Hamilton & Region Arts Council and the Carnegie Gallery Juried Exhibition, Hamilton, ON 2003 Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition, Toronto, ON Raku Exhibition, The Guild Shop, Toronto, ON Celebration in Clay, The Burlington Potter's Guild Juried Exhibition, Burlington, ON 2002 Biennial Exhibition, Hamilton Potter's Guild, Hamilton, ON Celebration in Clay, The Burlington Potter's Guild Juried Exhibition, Burlington, ON Designer Crafts, The Hamilton& Region Arts Council and the Carnegie Gallery Juried Exhibition, Hamilton, ON 2000 Biennial Exhibition, Hamilton Potter's Guild and Region, Hamilton ON Awards 2005 Arts Burlington Kaleidoscope Judges Choice Award for Excellence, Burlington Potter's Guild, Burlington, ON 2004 Arts Burlington Kaleidoscope Judges Choice Award for Excellence, Burlington Potter's Guild, Burlington, ON 2003 Arts Burlington Kaleidoscope Judges Choice Award for Excellence, Burlington Potter's Guild, Burlington, ON Purchase Prize Award- Celebration in Clay, The Burlington Potter's Guild Juried Exhibition, Burlington, ON 2000 Pottery Supply House Donation Award- Biennial Exhibition, Hamilton Potter's Guild and Region, Hamilton ON
