May In The Studio...

"You must not ever stop being whimsical. And you must not, ever, give anyone else the responsibility for your life."
~ Mary Oliver

A lot has happened in the past few months...unfortunately, less in the studio. But, I have been attempting to maintain making since leaving my residency and working full time. The good news is that I have been accepted to Graduate School at the University of Florida! I will begin in the fall...and as August nears I find myself wondering how my work will evolve and change during those three years of intense studying and making. I still try to find the time to work in my studio, some moments it can feel discouraging...but most of the time I try to remind myself that I am discovering maybe more of what I don't want in my work, so that by the time I arrive at UF I have an idea of where I would like to go.

Here's some of my latest work....exploration in design, color, material, form, and technique.
