6 light brown ceramic pots on a wooden table.

Thanks so much for all your support around my shop opening - some lovely messages and lots of lovely orders, which I am still packing up.

There are still a few mugs and vases available online, and I will happily upgrade any orders to first class in the UK if you're after a Fathers Day gift!

To be honest I’m not sure what I’m doing on here, still navigating the format, etc. But happy to see so many artists! I’m setting ceramics in silver this week— here’s an Oribe shard from the soda kiln with an amazonite bead. Necklace soon come. What do you think? ✨

First day back on the wheel this year, hoping to drop a new collection at the end of February.

Here is the inside of one of my bowls. I think of these as soup bowls, as the handles are useful if the bowl is hot. However, I have one and I use it for my fruit in the morning!

Porcelain vessel.

Five colorful ceramic wall pieces shaped like flowers on a blue-grey wall with some plants in the bottom right corner. Three of the flowers have cute faces painted in the center with cheerful, peaceful, and side-eye expressions.

Loading the kiln today with some fun and a little bit weird work! I'm so nervous and excited to see the final results 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼In the meantime, posting more oldies but goodies.

#pottersofbluesky - What do you do when the thing you are (currently obsessed with) making isn’t what people want (to buy) from you? When you’ve created a style or product line that you’re feeling a bit too niched into? 🤔

This was one of the first bowls I made when I returned to pottery making in 2015 after over 10 years spent away from clay. I made the connection that I could apply my drawing and painting practice to my ceramic work. Painting on pots is now my favorite place to paint #ceramics #artwork #pottery #art

Love Gylly!

Getting wrapped up warm to head to the studio, kiln will go on tomorrow so it’ll be toasty!

Learning how to make stained glass and it feels so good to be creative in another medium.

A photo of a porcelain wine tumbler with sage green and dark Green glazes.

I've had to retire a few glazes as I explore a different firing temperature. This light sage green is one of them. But don't worry, greens will not disappear as a whole!

This glaze combo is a beauty though 😍

Hey #clay #ceramic #potter #artist peeps, have you had to retire any designs?

First post on this new platform for me, so I would like to introduce myself.
I collect my clay and driftwood for my (ash) glazes that I use on my ceramics.
I love to bring roots to my ceramics that is why I prefer to work with locally harvested materials.

The effect that a circular polarising filter has on reducing reflection glare when photographing glossy pots. This is going to make a big difference to my product photography! #pottery #photography
