Individually sculpted out of Terra Cotta clay. The wings are impressed with a hand carved fish stamp. The necklace has a lamp worked fish bead on the end surrounded by glass seed beads thatfit snugly around the kitty's neck. Under glazes are used to color the kitty. The body and dress are left matte and the wings are glazed for a luminous quality. Each have a distinctive personality and no two are ever alike, yet all are full of whimsy.
Approx. 4" tall

Working in clay is like meditation. Believing that all things have a unique personality, I try to capture this in my work. By using hand building techniques, under-glazes and glazes in a variety of painting styles, I create joyful and whimsical art ceramics. Textures are applied by using found objects and hand carved stamps I create. My formal training was in painting, mixed media, and textiles so I find ways to incorporate other media with my clay work. My style has evolved since my childhood endeavors with clay and painting but I still love creating pieces that have a message, even though I am much more lighthearted now. Making my clay pieces helps me keep an innocent wonderment for the beauty of Nature.
Laughter and Art can make life more joyful!
