Let the art be loud - I’ll be quietly weird in the background with clay under my nails.

Pretty exhausted this week, running on caffeine and blind determination - but hey, at least I’m tired doing something I love.

Some great workshops at Idyllwild Arts still have space! If you're looking for a ceramics workshop this summer, HOT CLAY in Idyllwild California is a great choice. Sculpture with Arthur Gonzalez, color in clay with Kim Murton, and soda-firing and wheel-throwing with Alex Watson are great choices.

Mondays and wet clay have a lot in common - both require patience, both can get messy, and both might collapse if you’re not careful. Stay centered, friends! 🎯✨ #studiolife

In grad school, they warn you: “You’ll never have this much studio time again.” At the time I laughed. Now these bowls are laughing at me from the shelf as I hop onto my 6th zoom meeting of the week. #theywereright

Remember: there are babes in the woods.

There’s something special about pottery in winter - warm mugs for cozy drinks, sturdy bowls for hearty soups, and the quiet joy of making in the studio while the world slows down. What’s your favorite winter ritual with ceramics? #wintercomforts

Making pottery is just controlled disaster management. My 20+ years practicing ceramics has taught me to embrace the chaos. Never thought it would be so applicable to life outside the studio but here we are #starsandstruggles #thisisamerica

Hiding in the pottery studio like a raccoon in a garage - hands covered in clay, avoiding emails and other humans. #mood

Peel and reveal #sosatisfying

Hi there 👋

I’m new to Bluesky social and wanted to introduce myself. I’m a left-handed maker, pattern lover, and functional ceramic artist working from my garagio in the PNW. I create thoughtfully designed pieces that blend function with bold, expressive surfaces. Let’s connect! #art #artist
