Notes: From the artist
Some of these are indeed stoneware, all are handpainted with acrylics.
Most are scuplted using tools of my own making.
The beads that I see posted on this site are an interesting mix of
a few very very old ones, and one much newer.

I lived in Jacksonville 86-94, but the Pacific Northwest is now my home.
I have worked in clay for more than twenty years, self taught, doing the show circuit and
then eventually scaling down to shops that I liked, and galleries at invitation.
