All sales donated to mutual aid in Gaza- I’m not on payroll for the summer and am working my butt off to pay rent, so this is how I can help. www.amandambarr.com/shop

Use code “worldsend” and I will cover shipping.

Some potter I’ve never heard of is having a little gatekeeping breakdown over on threads and it’s quite the ride. (He’s not the first one to do those things)

Everything is awful, but here's a funny meme I found for my art history class.

Potentially sad post: my fuzzy cuddle buddy, Sombra, the cat who saved me from the dark, is going in for a small surgery on Friday to biopsy a growth on his paw. If you have the ability to help, I have new mugs up in my shop. amandambarr.com/shop
Thanks to all who already shopped & shared!

Dropping a shop update tomorrow. Logging off and going home tonight to decompress from everything. Here’s a preview, all new mugs!

Slip-dipped 3D printed objects and skulls, weird enough?

Paying the cat tax to Bkuesky. I’m headed to my book job, but Sombra is pursuing his PhD in REM studies.

First round of new work is documented! I’ve come back to my European porcelain / reflections of the French Revolution / eat the rich body of work. Dystopian punch bowl!
