One day I was looking at the pine cone Christmas wreathe I had wired together for a center piece. I thought, 'this wreathe won't last forever. Why not make one out of clay. I formed the pine cones out of clay, added round balls and leaves to it. After it had dried I hand painted my wreath. It was bisque fired, then glazed and fired. Now I have a wreathe that will last forever, unless it gets dropped and broken.
I am a Christian by accepting Jesus as my Lord and savior. God has gifted my in the arts, particularly pottery. I enjoy turning on the wheel to make functional pottery but I also enjoy sculpting and creating whimsical figures, like my bears.
