I became interested in pottery about one year into retirement and started taking lessons at the Arkansas Art Center in Little Rock, a very fine pottery school. I studied there for over a year until we moved to New Mexico and there I continued my training with Jan Pacifico at the Tomé Gallery and then at Coyote Clay in Albuquerque. In the Spring of 2005, I invested in my own equipment and now work with my husband, the jeweler Vern Deas, in our home studio in Los Lunas, New Mexico.

My primary focus has gravitated to horsehair pottery and I love all aspects of making the pieces, from throwing to glazing to the final horsehair firing. Each piece is unique and has its own beauty and character.
