Thank you!
These are located at the Rowboat Gallery on the Oregon Coast.

Clay structure with stick legs. Flowers sprouting off the roof using nichrome wire. Fired to cone 5. Sections are striped using Amaco underglaze, unglazed.

Clay structure elevated with wooden sticks secured in a piece of hardwood with a raw edge. Red roof with crows lined up across the top on the roof ridge using nichrome wire to hold crows onto roof.

A couple of completed clay structures.

I’ve carved into the vase and then applied Amaco black underglaze. Now I’m scraping over the vase exposing the black line.

Beautiful

Crow house Wood house that is covered with collage using gelli prints. Driftwood legs striped with white. Finished with Dorland wax.

When not making clay houses I make house shapes in wood then add my hand printed papers from my gelli printing.
