Charlotte's clay work is focused on the hand building of sculptures, murals and other non-utilitarian subjects, using primarily low fire clays in raku, pit, gas and electric kiln firings.

"Each piece, mural or free standing was built and molded applying many elements used when working with clay.From the time that I start to the finished product a piece goes through many physical, chemical and accidental changes."
