  For artists there is no such thing as progress.
It's only a deepening.

—Isamu Noguchi


Wood Fired Pottery

Central to my work are the integrity and beauty of the materials, and the firing, which is done with wood using age-old techniques in a kiln I built myself in 2001. The intensive wood-firing experience enhances the depth of the glaze colors as well as the color of the clay bodies.

Simplicity, stillness, and the dynamic between pieces are important elements in my designs. My work, whether functional or sculptural, is meant to heighten our awareness during everyday moments, - moments that while repeated over and over throughout one’s lifetime, are nonetheless never duplicated.

enbi means "beauty of the flame"
