Two frogs stacked one on top of the other. The piece was inspired by the artist seeing two frogs mating.

From the Artist's Website:

I have decided recently to use this site as a vehicle for experimentation. There are a lot of things I will be attempting to work out and put into words and work. This still will be a site where you will be able to look at our art and purchase, but it will also be a place where I will play with an idea of Marcel Duchamp that he calls “the serious joke”. You will see in the Menu subjects like Sangre de Mora Mermelada and Little Stevie’s Raccoon Removal. These are part of my fantasy corporate empire. I actually make my own jam and I do help my neighbors by removing raccoons from their gardens. The serious joke.

I like to think of the making of functional pots as a subversive activity. What I make is art but most people would consider what I do as Craft or Decorative Art and with that a kind of diminished status. Subversive in that my intent is to design and make objects for daily use that communicate and convey, something much more than just utilitarian function. Art in plain sight or what I like to call the secret life of objects.
