Just a queer potter making pretty things out of mud.
Creative use of my old DVD copies of Lord of the Rings as propping, and a reminder that I'll be at the @the.mango.market Season Opener this Saturday in Abbotsford! It's rain or shine, but I'm hoping for shine!

These hand sculpted spoons have been a big hit! I've already sold a couple of these, but I thought I'd show them off anyway. Which one is your fave?

Some shino cups from the latest gas firing! I love how gold and metallic the shino glaze is, and the way it toasts the clay where the stencil was. I don't drink, but I feel like these would be perfect for a cold beer!

In progress, trying a new spray technique, with help from my studio assistant of course.

Making a teapot is always quite an undertaking, but it's so satisfying when they turn out nice.

Working on a couple of teapots. A memorial piece for a kitty, and some classic mushrooms. Excited to see how these turn out! Teapots are a ton of work, from making sure the lids fit perfectly, creating a functional spout, and just making sure it's not too heavy to hold a pot of tea.

A sketchbook page with 25 numbered rough sketches of crows in different poses.
Challenging myself to get good enough at drawing crows that I can freehand them on mugs. My challenge for myself is to do 500 sketches from reference. Knocked out the first 25 tonight.π¦ββ¬π¦ββ¬π¦ββ¬π¦ββ¬π¦ββ¬
