I do not believe that one decides and then sets out to make a masterpiece. An artwork has the potential to become a masterpiece. For me the work has to be done with integrity, passion, creativity and exceptional craftsmanship. In order to achieve Masterpiece status the work also has to withstand the test of time and the scrutiny of both peers and experts. The vessels created for the Masterpiece exhibition is part of my continual search to create, in clay, that exquisite, special piece.
