A strong sense of ratio and colour, and great expertise (see for example the perfectly fitting lids) can be recognised in his vases, dishes and lidded boxes.He shapes them both on the potter's wheel and from sheets of clay.The surface of the objects is the canvas for his true love:painting.He applies thin glazes, personally developed and based on the Japanese ceramic tradition, using enormous brushes, layer after layer.The result is a deep and warm colour with many nuances, brought to life by the repetition of the geometric patterns.
