Join us June 6th for the opening reception at Belger Arts Studio! We have all been working hard to get this show together! #ceramics

Little boy Jasper’s 3rd Birthday.

Playing with wadding… I used it to make a stilt to fire these earrings for a sculpture. #ceramics

Work table with random sculptures and tools. One sculpture is that of a space ship and another of a torso.

Starting to see things come together!

She is out! Sitting with it- not sure if I like it, but then… does it matter if I like it?
#ceramics

Every thing is in the kiln! I may re-fire some pieces, but otherwise I am done! One month til the resident show!
#ceramics #kiln

That is the last of my glazing! Going into the kiln tonight- thus ends my month long encampment in the glaze room. #ceramics #glaze #deadlines

A sculpture of a Disembodied head surrounded by ceramic eyeballs

Dude, I feel the same… getting down to the wire and things are coming out of kilns ready to be assembled! One more piece to glaze!

Good firing… now to assemble…
#ceramics

Firing this thing! I feel so cool in the kiln glasses
#ceramics #safteyfirst

Slowly filling up that kiln!
#ceramics

Glazing, glazing, glazing, gotta keep on glazing… #ceramics

Another day, another save… re made the torso and it fits pretty good! #ceramic

Ugh… this took over about a week of glazing to finish… well I still have a little more work tbh… it will never end. #ceramics #glazing

Here is the parts all together! I kind like the second weird head head better. #ceramics

I feel insane right now, I can’t believe this worked! She stands! And it is really cool to finally see the parts all together! #ceramics

This guy is going into the bisque! #ceramics

I love the sight of sculpture ready for a bisque in the morning light.
#ceramics

I like Amaco glazes…Ok… I love Amaco glazes. (Not an ad- but kinda, just not paid)
I like how they feel like paints and I can adjust color to my liking by mixing them. #ceramics #glazing

Sculpture of a torso and body wearing bow tie, tailed jacket and underwear

Giving baby a bath. Had a bunch of brunt up dry wall residue. Though the angle of this was funny while prepping for glaze. #ceramics

Things came out great from the bisque! Was so excited that I didn’t get a proper picture. Now to get to glazing.
#ceramics #newwork

New shoes, who dis? The feet blew up so I am going to attempt fitting green ware to bisque… wish me luck!
#ceramics

🤩 very pleased! #ceramics

Bisque in gas kiln today! #ceramics #greenware

Two sculptures on a work table. One the body and the other head of a clown.

This one is giving me trouble with assembly… figures! The head doesn’t fit right, so it is time to get creative and whip out the old sewing machine.
#ceramics #sewing #problemsolving

Ceramic sculpture of a man wearing a t-shirt and whitey- tightly style underwear and slippers. The man is posed scratching his belly and eyes rolled up towards the sky.

Super pleased with how this came together. Sadly the eyes don’t spin like planned, but I am still proud or this piece!

Ahhhhh! The kiln gods were merciful! Not unhappy with the results! Now to assemble. #ceramics

I said a literal prayer last night before pressing start… please! Please come out not a disaster! #ceramics #kilngodsbekind

Two sculptures in a kiln. One missing an arm.

Another day, another blow up. 😩

The Hair looks awesome!
