A pen and color pencil drawing of a young woman with an oversized head, her red hair gently moved by the wind stands in a black-hulled small ship (based on a Little Tikes tugboat shaped sandbox), holds onto the white cabin with her left hand. There is nobody at the wheel of the ship. In her right is a white bird house that has a brown leather suitcase handle attached to the green roof. Above her head is a blender, the black electric cord curving around like a halo. And around the blender is a swirling cloud of razor blades. The grey sky is overcast, and there are gentle but pronounced swells in the vibrant blue green water. At the bottom right, just below the green blue waterline a circling shark can be seen.

A pen drawing of a rhinoceros with a house-shaped burden on its back. The rhino is mostly grey. The house has the number 20 and letter “w” and a scissor headed bird on the front. There is a long brass pole that extends out horizontally from the structure that has a pumpkin dangling from it

Yeah I need to do more with that one! I might go glaze something with it now in fact 😂

Thanks for doing another share Justin!

Idk make it pink and sparkly.

Some prints are now available at

They’re really not too bad, one of my main mugs is one with a glaze like this from another potter. It’s all still glass, so spills come of pretty easy. With this kind of glaze it’s really a little better to hand wash, and use like a soft brush on the textured part. But rags do fine on it too.

Went digging through mugs to send to a friend and was fondling this one again. The shape is kind of what I consider like a “potters” mug. The two tone crackle is something I really want to play with more.
This mug is rad.

Another banger! I need to do something in blue. I think I have a spectrum blue like that that hasn’t gotten used yet.

GOOD BOY, MONGO!✨🩸

Had to charge up the real camera to grab a few pics. Luckily it’s just been chilling in these vines basically all day. A tiny part of me wants it to uh perish right there that way I can have it 😂 I don’t have an entomology collection anymore but this would be a fine start.

Gigantic Polyphemus moth I saw being buffeted around in my yard. Glad it found a spot to chill for a minute. Its wingspan is probably bigger than my palm. #moth #bugsky

Rad! I really need to remember to try a white + iron combo in my next ^6 kiln. It’s such a cool vibe when it gets runny

Making this feels like an eternity ago. Trying to get a bisque kiln organized this week.

It’s one of my favorites. I’ve been trying to recreate it for a minute 😂

The armadillos are great! Is that amaco deep speckled olive?

Love the layers on these. That purple interior glaze is lovely too. I’ve been meaning to make one kind of like that

Sumpin, that water is actually from a small fissure up hill of the pump that was trickling in. 6” of rain puts too damn much pressure on the poor old foundation 😂

Everyone is jealous of my indoor puddle.

No I haven’t heard of them I’ll look them up!

Placed a hold! Everything you’ve recommended has been a slam dunk by my accounts
