 Jeff is a potter and ceramic artist working out of his studio in Mooresville, North Carolina.  Jeff creates beautiful and unique works of art in clay that range from the functional to abstract.

Using white earthenware, Jeff creates ritualistic abstract sculpture and totems.  His surfaces are finished to resemble other materials like bone, wood or metal. Some pieces are finished with gold luster, iron wash (sold surface finish).

The making of each piece itself is a ritualistic, meditative process allowing the mind to wander through countless ideas and thoughts.
