Montana De Oro Individual Urn
Description:
This piece was inspired by a day trip taken in 1998 to a beautiful place in the Central Coast of
California called Montana De Oro - "Valley of the Bears". (Picture to right)

The rocks are most unique on this particular beach and I went home to work in the studio and
started to carve the styles of the rocks found on the beach that day.  

My art is unique and different with the hand carved rocks that adorn the top of each urn for the knob.  
I also sprinkle glass in the bottom of the vessel for a sparkling effect.  

The body of each piece is hand crafted on the potters wheel and then the lid and base are created
to compliment the piece with the carved rock on top.  The piece is placed in a smoker with sawdust
and a few secret ingredients to get the natural earth tone colors flashed onto the sides of my art.

Agateware Individual Urn
This piece was inspired by the rock called "Agate"  being a
rock hound by nature, and loving all of the different colors
available.  This simple technique of throwing different
color clays together was used when the craft was begun in
1995.  When done and trimmed the "Agate" look is then
revealed and creates a dramatic look.  Each piece
definitely has its own breath of life.

Carved Individual Urn
This piece was inspired by some of the Indian tribes I
have studied and been inspired from like for example the
San Ildefonso Pot to the right.  I start with a fresh canvas of
clay to carve my intricate geometric designs which takes a
considerable amount of time (Approx. 3 hours or more
start to finish) and patience to craft one of these urns.  I
turn on the radio and listen to some good music or go out
to the "Bonsai Garden" and smoke a cigar to finish one of
these pieces.  I am also interested in Bonsai and have a
garden in Long Beach where I live.
Description:
Special Order Urns
These pieces are inspired by different things like for
example the tribal designs are inspired by watching
"Miami Ink" on Television.  I thought I could transform
peoples tattoos onto pottery.  I carved the designs out with
an actual tattoo gun.  I can take a digital photograph of the
persons art and transfer that image onto a one of a kind
piece of art they can treasure forever.

Crystal Gemstones Collection
This piece was inspired by just trying different glazes that I
had on hand in the studio.  This particular glaze is in the
"Jungle Gems" series from Mayco.  It is a fun glaze and
has unlimited possibilities.  This is a piece that you the
customer can have a hand in to create a special urn.

You will notice that the rock that I carve for the knob
matches the glaze in the body of the piece.  I also sprinkle
black glass in the bottom.  The black strip you see at the
top is a black enamel added after the piece has been
fired.

The carved urns are very labor intensive, but I do love
doing each one.  They are very challenging because
you have to "color in the lines" if you will.  If you spend
2 hours getting to a point and screw up on one of
these pieces it is frustrating to say the least.  The
finished product is really beautiful.  


Full customization is available.  I can make them in
any shape, style, color, etc...  Just give a call
