Early Works

You can see how much I've learned by seeing how I started.  

My first three pieces:

I started learning how to paint ceramics in October 1999.

Oct 1999	Dec 1999	March 2000

My third piece won Best of Show at the 2000 Texas State Fair.  After I did these first three pieces I started experimenting with learning the maiolica technique.  I learned how to create maiolica from doing research and lots of trial and error.  

Pieces from my first year:

April 2000	May 2000	June 2000	June 2000
July 2000	July 2000	Sept. 2000	Sept. 2000
Sept. 2000	Oct. 2000	Oct. 2000	Oct. 2000
