Shelves of wet, thrown ceramic ware in a shelving unit. Top 2 shelves, dark stoneware bowls and small cylinders. Bottom shelf, porcelain mugs and bowls, drier and covered with plastic.

I haven’t posted for ages; I haven’t been in the studio much due to health issues, but I’m back now.
I used up the last of some black stoneware, and used up some 1# chunks of porcelain wedged about 4 months ago. Feels good! Looking forward to finishing them next week😊

We cut open a spaghetti squash that had been sitting for 3? 4? weeks, and the seeds had sprouted. Surprise! Cooking the squash, not cooking the sproutsπŸ˜„

Thank you!!! I’m currently dealing with an injury; once I get past that, in a month or so, I’ll be making more work (and sharing images) 😊❀️

I’d use crystal with an AB coating (iridescent, comes in many colors)

Non-surgical…
When I was a young girl, I stuck my finger into the push mower my dad was using to mow the grass (yup that old). My mom cleaned my finger, added ointment, stuck the parts together and wrapped well. I have a faint scar where it all grew together. Kids heal!

I love calamity ware! I’m a potter (using some similar imagery, although nowhere near as commercially successfully as calamity ware🀣), and I’ve admired not just their storytelling, but just the beautiful density of their artwork.

Joe is going to scan anything I don’t have in the computer already, then they are going to make & mendβ€”a recycle art supply. People will use them for collage! Happy they will be of use

I’m doing a big clean-up/re-org in my studio. Today I found ancient paperwork from my business from the 80s to mid-2010s. Into the recycle, clean sweep! Except for my original certificate of authority from the 80s, that’s history!
BUT…what to do with my hoard of actual physical slides? Garbage?

I’m watching the Dr Who marathon and greatly enjoying catching up. Realizing, seeing so many one after another, there is a ton of running in every episode. We’re calling it the Dr Who workoutπŸ˜„

I grew up with Jean Shepherd, both on the radio and his books, which are the source material for A Christmas Story. If you can find it, superior to the movie in so many ways: β€œIn God We Trust (All Others Pay Cash)”

Shipping last minute work to a gallery, didn’t have the correct boxes, had to frankenstein one. Pray for meπŸ€ͺ
I did surround with lots of crumpled paper, more corrugated cardboard on top, lots of loose fill, and tape. Lots of tape πŸ˜„ I THINK everything is solidπŸ™„

There have been a bunch of posts about donuts, and the posters’ adamant preferences. I don’t much care about brand. BUT…My donuts do need to be gluten-free and vegan or there will be consequences. And I like them plain, maybe some cinnamon. Any brand that can do that is fine by me.
