I just kind of realized that my whole aesthetic boils down to the idea of: girly but not pretty. It’s not that me or my objects can’t be pretty but it’s not the point. We can be over-the-top girly, resplendent with bows and flounces and not give one shit if the world perceives us as pretty.

Magenta Sipper by Olivia Avery Cone 6 porcelain and stoneware clay mix. Wheel thrown, hand painted and slip trailed. Measures 2.5" tall. Microwave and dishwasher safe, but handwashing is recommended.

Found this gorgeous sipper while browsing Salt Stone Ceramics online shop, the colors are so beautiful....the interior seems so deep. A really lovely silhouette.

A pencil sketch of two vases in the background, the foreground is the shadowy outline of a scorpion-like creature.

Throwback to a pencil sketch I drew in 2020, double vases, a scorpion-like outline and halos around each vase.

A picture from a page of a ceramics textbook called 500 Bowls. The image is of a large bowl that has several pegs on the outside. From the pegs hang mugs, so the bowl also functions as a mug holder.

Posting this beautiful bowl by Barbara Hanselman, from the 500 Bowls book, a little bootleg I'll admit, a picture of a book 🀣 but I don't think anyone will be upset. I mean, isn't this just fantastic? The texture, the colors, that surface...and what a cool idea.

I saw a raccoon running away from a trash can outside the pottery studio and felt like I related to it lol.

That's such a good idea! I've been playing around with a sewing tool but a stamp is a great idea

Today's pot, a new thing I've been trying out with these carvings. I started with a floral design in mind but the leaves quickly became blocky as I thought about the OG Mario games, and embroidery on quilts. This is a white stoneware, covered in dark brown engobe, then carved through.

Finished glazing this small cup with new pattern, I'll dip it in a clear then it's ready for the kiln. I've been playing around with engobes, painting and applying with a slip trailer. Lately my recent work has been really intense surface-wise because I can work at home after my toddler is asleep...
