Fuller, c.1974, block ond white photogroph Pottern moy be compored to ', o spring of woter thot con be drown on eternolly. To provide o source of imoginotion thot never dries up - thot, for me, is true beouty. A beoutiful pottern is olwoys receptive to the spirit of the viewer. One never tires of looking ot it. Through pottern, the world ond our heorts ore mode beoutiful. by Soetsu Yonogi from The lJnknown Croftsmon: A Joponese lnsight into Beouty �Arc 1,2014, stonewore cloy, combinotion wheel thrown ond hond built I enjoy moking quiet ond simple pots thot you con live with ond reoct to on o doily bosis. I wont my pots to serve o purpose, but olso stond on their own os strong visuol objects. I om intrigued with how cloy works; it is fluid by noture, then fixed, ond frogile in its finol form. I grew up in o house thot volued working with your honds ond the volue of good croftsmonship. I hove worked in cloy since 1976 becouse I love the medium ond thot love hos helped me stoy excited for oll these yeors. I strive for the highest quolity thot my obilities ollow me to ochieve - which is olso whot I look for in my students :=,\Lt r ASAMS ii-l*t\""-" �Noture Suspended Across the Greot Divide, 2013, oil on convos, I2 x IARC\ coscRovE 1: '12 inches My work explores clossic themes of time, distonce, noture, ond culture. A pointing offers infinite possibilities ond o joy in creoting eloborote color relotionships with complex potterns ond forms. My pointings ore composed of countless loyers of tronsporent ocrylic, oil ond cold wox mediums. lmogery is derived from personol digitol orchives ond obiects collected on journeys both neor ond for. I work to resolve the intersections of tronsporency with opocity, tronsience with permonence, obstroction with reolism, ond the ethereol with physicol ospeats of noture. ln studio proctice, os in life, I seek o quolity of significonce, meoning, beouty, ond groce. �\ trq, t"1 Primories, 201 4, ocrylic, I I x l4 inches My work shows o common threod of inspirotion from my immediote environment. The noturol londscope, objects ond people who ore port of it ore the bosis of my work. Whether o fold in o flog or o fine detoil of o piece o{ pottery flower orrongement, or nteresting foce or figure, my surroundings hove olwoys been the subjects for my ort. r.{', point of view moy be reflected through o comero lens or pointed on convos or poper. The things ond people oround me hove sotisfied my expressive curiosity. - my lotest work, I hove ploced the focus on objects; using tints, shodes, shodows ond - E^lights o{ color, which form the object ond creote bold potterns of rhythmic color ond ,crue. I strive to help the viewer journey through these pieces ond discover the bosic :-,::€s cnd colors thot initiolly coptured my ottention in these common everydoy subiects. ::.1.

I continue, not with o foolish notion of perfecting the croft, but with on increosing sense of urgency to process my stockpile of experiences ond beliefs. These pointings oddress the relotionship between the personol, contemplotive, process of pointing ond the fost-poced, morket-driven, evolution of technology. Creoting them olso gove me on excuse to ploy with old things. The computers, doting from the l990s, were originolly purchosed with greot excitement, since they represented stote-of-the-ort technology. They were lost used by my young son, who ployed compoct discs on them during his preschool yeors. The toys, doting from the 1960s, were rondomly ocquired during my childhood. The donkey wos found flooting down the creek in my bockyord ofter o heovy roinstorm, ond the obnoxiously lorge squeoky fish come from o Tupperwore porty. It's funny how the old toys seem newer to me thon the computers. i' rri ;a!: LAliNlNc �Study for Shodow, 2Ol 4, pencil on poper, 5 x 7 inches MILLER.Lift[[fi8' Shodow is obout couse ond effect relotionships. lt olso oddresses themes of unrecognized purpose ond potterns of chonge thot exist beyond our control. ln ort history the troditionol role of o memento mori orvonitos pointing hos been to remind viewers of their mortolity. Shodow probobly ocknowledges this os well. More immediotely, however, the work represents something very reol on the compus of Wilkes University. I could exploin it, but if you look oround, you'll discover it for yourself. Thot, too, is o process of tronsformotion. �-,: I -3 'd:1 C'css Generotional Uplift,2012, printed 2014, digitol photogroph on metol, '16 x 20 inches :.- ::'rnulotes creotivity ond multiple modes of leorning.
