Returning to Lancaster this Fall, this body of work is my response to living and working here for the past few months. This is the city where I began my career as a professional artist, a city rooted in history, and a place that continues to give me inspiration.

Exploring the city with my camera is a pastime I began over ten years ago when I first returned to Lancaster. Capturing images of architecture, streetscapes, and people often leads to discoveries like the snuff factory behind Charles Demuth’s home.

Borrowing from these walks through the city, I have combined utilitarian forms with painted images of Lancaster to create functional ceramics that reflect this interesting and historic place.
