A Dance Between Function and Whimsy

Adobe Rose Works creates in a small home studio in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, but the idea was born somewhere between Gallup, New Mexico, and Winslow, Arizona. We found the "Adobe Rose" postcard at the Gallup Visitor's Center and came up with the full name before we stopped to stand on a corner in Winslow.

I'm passionate about clay. The world can be a happier place through art.

It's Sgraffito!

Sgraffito comes from the Italian word for "to scratch." I decorate some of my pieces  by scratching through colors (underglazes and colored slips) on leather hard clay to create the surface design. It's all done freehand. Be on the lookout for hidden critters and other things that sneak in to my work.
