| Art and teaching have been the focus of my career for over 30 years. Although ceramics was my primary art form for 24 years, I have also worked in many other media such as: mixed media, painting, poetry and monoprinting. I am currently focusing on Clay Monotype. Selling my work in art shows, stores and galleries has kept me focused and motivated. Teaching ceramics, drawing and monoprinting to children and adults in my Clay Art Studio in Alameda, CA, allows me to share what I learn and to inspire interest in the arts. My community volunteer work, mostly in art organizations, has also inspired and given me the opportunity to share my gifts with the universe. SELECTED SHOWS & FAIRS A Visual Word .
