hand built from slabs and pinched stoneware clay, under glazes and over glaze, Raku fired

A collector from Arizona purchased this piece the weekend of October 23, 2010.

I love this piece because of its layering of 3-D sculpting, and 2-D painting.  There is something essential about the way that the couple’s hands are coming together, while they are not looking at each other, but ahead, toward the future.

Barbara is able to say something very special about intimacy, while still remaining subtle.
