YEAR 2020 is my "YEAR OF EXPLORATION" a year of departures, investigations and new materials: I investigate form through drawing and painting, and push my sculpture into the materials of ceramics through a 2 month residency at Medalta (June/July). I also look forward to the Craft@theedge conference in Newfoundland in October where I will speak on 'innovation explored' as part of a panel presentation- hope to see you there!

"Whistler Rock face", 2018. Kiln-Cast Glass (Bullseye) HIGHY COMMENDED in the U.K Warm Glass Competition, Bullseye Glass, 2019; on View in Dublin, Ireland at the Ireland Glass Biennale (October 23-January 7th, 2020). This piece is part of my series in glass investigating the topographies near my home in Whistler, BC and Matapouri, New Zealand. Though initially this work appears different from my 'Wonderment' series and installations, it is linked by the magic of investigating and noticing all that is close by. Other pieces in this glass series were created between 2015-2018, and continues as an ongoing investigation.
