Artist’s Statement: I began working with ceramics during a difficult time in my life. I learned the most from mistakes that I have made in the past. Through the years of experimentation, I have found my own way. I have learned the art of patience, no matter how many times I have failed. The passion I have for this art always energizes me, no matter how many challenges I face. My imagination brings me more creativity, no matter how old I am. I have always strived for my best for every piece that I have made. For me, every piece of artwork I create should be beautiful, imaginative and inspiring. I know that the sky is the limit. There are still lots of things I am eager and awaiting to learn and explore. For now, I am enjoying the experience.
