I once lived in a world where my work, whether it was a delicate Clay Sculpture or an intricate Mixed Media Sculpture, would speak for me. My passion for creating pieces like Raku Sculpture and even imaginative Sand Sculpture reflects my artistic voice. I still believe that this artistry, including the unforgettable Wedding Sand Castles I design, is my most important communication.
I guess I better get in a few words about my clay works, especially since I have worked with this earthly material all my life. I found the touch of clay when I was 16 years old and sold my first piece of clay sculpture when I was 17. My clearest voice in clay came when I discovered the spiritual nature of Raku sculpture.

I guess I better get in a few words about my clay works, especially since I have worked with this earthly material all my life. I found the touch of clay when I was 16 years old and sold my first piece of clay sculpture when I was 17. My clearest voice in clay came when I discovered the spiritual nature of Raku sculpture. I became professionally involved in creating sand sculpture because of its elegant, yet simple beauty. Its temporary existence brings a balance to the more permanent works like the stoneware and porcelain clays I've created with. Sand sculpture is a slow and patient sculptural medium, and yet I can create a 10-ton sand sculpture in just a few days, including unique wedding sand castles that capture the essence of celebration.
I create works in different mediums, including Raku sculpture, stoneware and porcelain clay, sand, words, music, and life. Each material, whether it's clay sculpture, mixed media sculpture, or sand sculpture, manifests in its own individual style, much like the intricate wedding sand castles I craft.
Raku sculpture is where my voice speaks the clearest. It evokes an appreciation of the natural order of things that are fresh and uncomplicated. Raku espouses the spontaneity of events, almost accidental, where the elegance and uniqueness of 'imperfections' may be seen from a perspective of unpretentious beauty. This connection to the ele
Raku sculpture is where my voice speaks the clearest. It evokes an appreciation of the natural order of things that are fresh and uncomplicated. Raku espouses the spontaneity of events, almost accidental, where the elegance and uniqueness of 'imperfections' may be seen from a perspective of unpretentious beauty. This connection to the elemental transition of impermanence also resonates with other forms of art, such as clay sculpture and mixed media sculpture, highlighting the primal source of human nature. Even in the world of sand sculpture and wedding sand castles, the essence of Raku reminds us of the beauty found in fleeting moments.
