bizzy clay

Thank you for visiting!  I am a ceramicist in Madison, WI. You can find me in the pottery studio whenever I have a spare moment.

My work is exclusively functional. Whenever I sit down at the wheel, I consider how what I am going to make will be useful in everyday life. 

My work has developed into three different styles. 

First, I love the simplicity of white and clear glazes. It's a stark yet warm style that emphasizes the form of my wheel thrown work. This allows the slight alterations - a slightly squared bowl or a faceted cup - to shine through. 

Second, a pop of color! These pieces maintain the form-focused white glaze style, but add a splash of blue/green that catches the eye and brightens a gray day. Carefully applied colorful glazes emphasize my altered forms. 

Third, I enjoy experimenting with surface designs using underglaze and image transfer techniques. These are more whimsical pieces.
