The Farm...

In 2007 I purchased my dream property.  5 acres, 5 barns, a house, orchards, and plenty of pasture.  With no farming experience, I saw the potential of building my own art producing playground.  More studio space than an artist could ever hope for,  in an unparallelled setting.  At the time I had no idea the entire property contained incredibly useful clay. In 2013 I began large scale excavation and processing of my Back Yard Clay and continue to making work with it.

The farm has 2 buildings devoted to ceramics, and one devoted to glass blowing. Over 70 pear trees, 20 apple trees, and an annual 40-something lamb reside on the property.
