Clay
Porcelain
I primarily work with porcelain for my clay body. It’s smooth, white, and even translucent when thin. It combines well with glazes, showcasing their vibrant colors and depths.
Glaze
I use several glazes that feature the colors of my beloved Midwest—reds, greens, some blues, and even a white.
-
Autumn Leaf Red
This semi-translucent glaze contains all the colors found in fall leaves—red, pink, orange, yellow and brown.
-
Emerald Green Celadon
This celadon is my attempt at capturing the beauty of the green found all over the Midwest in grasses, moss, and sunlight shining through leaves.
-
Green Stone
I adore this glaze. It’s semi-matte, and shows texture and depth by transitioning from a yellow through light green to cornflower blue.
-
Plum
This transparent purple glaze breaks white when thin, and has a nice glossy feel.
-
Textured Turquoise
This glaze is just fun. It’s packed with color. Lots of greens and when applied thickly, a brilliant blue.
-
White
This simple white glossy glaze is perfect for highlighting simple shapes like this bird magnet, and for use in dishes where it focuses attention on the food.
