"I explore the idea of tranquility, balance and complexity as manifested in nature with my clay and wood. I have always been drawn to the forms, lines, asymmetries and delicate intricacies found in nature. Nature inspires me endlessly. Clay subtly implies earth. Wood and plant images reflect the growth of living things. The vessels resulting from my lifelong study are the result of my careful balance of these elements. Slow, complex, infinitely fascinating." ~ Jan Jacque
