About this space

This is the home base for my studio practice.

I’m a ceramic artist based in Portland, Oregon. For several years, my work lived mostly through markets and an online shop under the names Rock Dogs and Rock Home. That period shaped how I work and how I think, and I’m grateful for the people who crossed paths with the work during that time.

Lately, I’ve been wanting a place that feels slower and more open-ended. A place to think out loud, to keep track of what I’m making, and to notice what’s changing in the studio as it happens.

Here, I’ll share new work as it develops, notes from the studio, techniques I’m learning, mistakes I’m making, and things I’ve picked up along the way. Some posts may be practical. Others more reflective. There’s no fixed schedule, and no expectation that every post leads anywhere in particular.

Some of the work you’ll see here will feel familiar. Some of it won’t. That’s part of the process.

If you’re reading along, I’m glad you’re here.
