Paperclay's amazing versatility is the ideal medium for my aesthetic. I can texture the slabs easily by pressing into the wet clay rubber stamps or tiles that I make with different motifs. Paper clay allows me to work very thinly, making some of the clay walls translucent.

I can design horns and spikes and thorns and hats and simply add them to the body of the piece with water.

A teapot is never too blue or green or pink and can never have too much decoration on its surface.

And if the pots begin to dance or seem to have an attitude, then I feel I have succeeded.
