Ceramic sculpture is my passion.  Clay is a magical, complex medium that fascinates, excites and motivates me to continue its pursuit and study. Though I fell in love with clay the moment I touched it, it was not until much later in life that I focused on learning its mysteries. After graduating from the University of Miami with a B.Ed. degree, I later returned to school to study fine art and art history at Miami Dade College, UM and Florida International University.  For the last 20 years, I have focused full-time on clay sculpture, participating in numerous workshops with master clay artists and continuing classes to hone my skills and find my artistic voice. 

An interest in human behavior and psychology as well as a fascination with people and faces led me to working with the figure.  Figurative sculpture allows me to tell stories about the human condition – our relationships, daily struggles and triumphs, our foibles, fantasies and emotions.  The South Florida environment,  animals and daily life experiences inspire me and are reflected in my work. 

I hope viewers will relate to my sculptures with a sense of shared experience, wonder, reflection and an occasional smile.

My work has been exhibited in juried and invitational shows and at South Florida galleries.
