Excited by the possibilities of expression that a sculptural medium afforded her, she traveled to more classes in Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma. She eventually settled in the Texas Hill Country, where she found a favorable climate for the development of her pottery career. Textures characteristic of organic growth abound in her designs which are both wheel thrown and hand built. Many of her pieces are pierced, carved and sculpted with scale-like, crackled surfaces and bark finishes. Among the awards she’s received for her pottery, she’s most proud of the “Peoples’ Choice Award” at the 2006 National Ceramic Show in San Angelo, TX.
