satin black by spectrum is my new favorite pre-mixed glaze. Malachite jungle hems is a close second for its drippy trippy qualities as seen here.

Tonight’s art-making colored pencil class with Barbara DiLorenzo was inspired by Walter Stuempfig’s oil painting Still Life (20th Century). It was so much fun. Low pressure, big fun. These classes @princetonartmuseum.bsky.social are online, free & captioned in English & Español

I lead a mixed media workshop on Fridays and today, we made paper out of scraps of crumpled gift wrapping paper and scrap ends of magazine and construction lying around the shared studio.

Work in progress. We shall see how this turns out! I am trying to be better at remembering what glazes I play around with because if something turns out in a way I like, I want to remember what I did.

I spent so much time focused on the outside of this little bowl, that by the time I wanted to smooth the inside, it was too dry to do so & it was time for bisque fire. Didn’t want to risk breaking it, so now I have a crumbly inner with a curved outer. I love it!

I have so much to learn about the science of glazing and how to create different effects. Hoping to take a class someday. But for now, I’m learning by doing & thankfully nothing has cracked or exploded or stuck to the community kiln! #pottery #ceramics #handmade #electrickiln

sometimes the catch paper I wipe my brushes on become something more striking than the art I was working on.
