Dropped these two pieces off today for the Beyond the Call exhibition at the Suffolk Art Gallery.

I walked in expecting to see eagles, flags, and familiar symbols of service—but what I found instead was something quieter, more personal, and honestly more powerful.

The work already in the gallery speaks less about the image of service and more about the experience of it—memory, identity, transition, and the life that comes after.

That’s the space I’m interested in too.

These pieces are part of that exploration—structure and discipline meeting color, movement, and something a little more open.

Excited to be included in this show alongside other voices telling their version of the story.

On view April 28 – June 12. Reception: May 8, 6–9 PM

137 test tiles.

Thank goodness for my extruder—because running out of test tiles mid-testing is the worst.

I’ve got a few glaze ideas I’ve been wanting to push, and this is the groundwork that makes it possible.

Not the flashy part of the process—but definitely one of the most important.

Earlier this week I had the chance to be part of a panel discussion for the Hampton Roads Pride Community Connection series. The conversation focused on community building, support, and the impact women have in bringing people together.

As someone who’s built a community around clay, these discussions resonate deeply with me. My work—both in the studio and personally—often revolves around the idea of gathering and connection.

Thank you to for the invitation and to the wonderful women who shared their stories and made it such an uplifting evening.
