Dennis’ work has appeared in several books including The Artful Teapot by Garth Clark and Handbuilt Pottery by Kathy Triplett, as well as magazines such as Clay Times, Ceramics Monthly, Ceramic Art & Perception (Australia) and American Craft.
Currently Dennis makes his clay works and teaches at HUMMINGBIRD, the straw-bale home and adobe studio he spent over a decade creating with his wife, Leslie Lee, who is also a ceramic artist and painter.In 2005 the couple began a series of Summer Workshops and completed two rooms in their home for Bed & Breakfast guests.
Dennis enjoys writing poetry and shares with Leslie a love of her daughter Rachel, good food, their dog and cats, and each other, but Dennis’ focus will always be on his studio work which he eagerly pursues.
