A Screeching Halt

Yet another coronavirus post on the internet. Im sure by this point everyone is weary of it, and is feeling the affects one way or another. 2020 will be known as the year the Earth hit its pause button. Everything stopped and alot of people lost their jobs, me included. And I'm totally ok with... Continue Reading →

Scale it Up

Now that I have better access to the studio, and a studio mate who can punch like an artist, I want to make large work again. The same issues persist in regards to the limitations in kiln space. The barrel kilns have a total inside height of 26 inches without any furniture inside. So any... Continue Reading →

A Cup for your Thoughts

What is in a cup. Coffee. Tea. Water. Pens? They hold things for us to drink, that's the most basic use of a cup and it's what most people see in a cup when they pick it up to use it.

I only recently rediscovered it while perusing my old sketchbooks. While in college, we were required to study art history as part of... Continue Reading →

Commence Production

It had been over 5 years since I attempted to produce a concise series of pieces intentionally. A body of work in clay that felt whole. I wanted to continue to explore the subject of rigid vs organic and see what could come of it in a mass produced scale. The turtles are pet projects... Continue Reading →

Two Birds, One Bucket

In college, I created a few small pieces which drew on imagery from airplane boneyards for source material. I had always wanted to see one of these places in person but never had the chance, money, or reason to do it on my own. Working for a small independent jet engine repair shop refurbishing engines...

On an Island in the Caribbean

It happened from one day to the next. My manager asked if I could get on a plane and fly to a small island in the southern carribean to perform a borescope inspection for an engine that was being taken from one plane and being placed on an another. I had done this inspection plenty... Continue Reading →
