My creative clay artwork for the last fifteen years has centered on ideas expressed in my unique Reassembled Ring Teapots. These sculptural and functional works of art have been featured in many ceramic art competitions and exhibitions in the USA and in Asia. A photo of my “Pink Pentagonal Cross-Section Teapot” was published on the cover of the March 2002 Ceramics Monthly magazine, along with an article by Paul Park on pages 38-43 (available in the "Articles" section).
To learn more about my fired clay artworks and to inquire about purchasing them, please visit the Teapots section, or select a teapot from the sample images below.

On March 3, 2011, I received an e-mail from Mao Zengyin, editor of China Ceramics Illustrated, a bound periodical magazine averaging 150 pages, which is published in color every two weeks in Mainland China. Mr. Mao wrote:
"We are planning a feature about the contemporary sculptural teapots and we love your teapots so much."
After several e-mail exchanges, in which Mr. Mao courteously answered my questions, I sent him 17 high-resolution JPEG images, an artist's statement, and permission from Paul Park to translate into Chinese and publish the text from Paul's March 2002 Ceramics Monthly Magazine feature article on my Reassembled Ring Teapots. You can view the Chinese text and images from the 10-page feature article published in the April 15-30, 2011edition of China Ceramics Illustrated, as well as an image of the cover of this issue HERE.
