A Forest of Mugs
For my 2025 production cycle, I created a forest of tree mugs featuring new goopy bark, mushrooms, frogs, moss, and slugs.
Available for sale starting Nov 2025.
Dragons and Other Creatures
My creature sculptures are full of life, rich in color, texture, and details. Most are one of a kind, or one of a handful of fully handmade works of art.
Facing Fatphobia
This series of sculptures addresses and protests against our fatphobic culture.
Jewelry and Functionalware
When I’m not making sculptures, I’m exploring ideas in functionalware, including jewelry, mugs, plates, and platters.

A clay sculptor and instructor based in Durham, NC.
I love creating sculptures that are full of life, color, and detail. My work ranges from whimsical and joyful, imagined and magical creatures, to thoughtful and challenging works commenting on cultural issues. Occasionally I create functionalware and jewelry too. I’m always learning and experimenting and trying new things.
For questions, commissions, and anything else, contact me or DM me on instagram. Thanks!
