The Wild Side
frenzy collection
My frenzy collection is inspired by the sound and sight of crashing ocean waves and began as a rebellion to the precision and focus required to create my birch, and charcoal collections. After spending hours at a time on each intricate piece, I often found myself with a lot of pent up energy. One day, I happened to have a big bucket of dyed slip sitting open next to me, and I went for it. I grabbed half a dozen brushes and started splattering unsuspecting bowls. It felt fast paced and free...and messy! The process gave me the chance to expel that extra energy and resulted in surprisingly dynamic pots. I decided to develop a line of work that embraces this more spirited side of my working style. I typically wheel throw or hand build pieces for the collection and set them aside until I need a day of play. I use bold strokes and playful forms decorated with traditional blue slip and gray accents for a fun, minimalist collection that’s great for everyday use.
