And in an alternate universe the us navy is in the caribbean to provide support and succor to the islands devastated by Malissa. Even better the mission is led by Columbian and Venezuelan fishermen. We help. Don’t just dream it, be it.

Finial. Underglaze and engobe are not fun for me. But the form was delightful to play with. Slugs are a perfect subject for clay. #ceramic #sculpture

Look what was at the bottom of an old trunk! A gift I made for James Broughton shortly before he left this world. #poem

You are incompletely disguised as a mortal
You are the eternal stranger I have always known
I saw your wings this morning

Just a quick thought: if everyone would start talking about the complexity of their own gender and sexuality, it might just help deflate a bit of the hegemony in power at the moment. Please help.

It seems quite fitting for the inauguration to be frozen. Dante, after all, showed us Satan frozen, trapped in ice in the ninth circle of hell. Life imitates art.

Just an odd finial on a six by six inch post. Testing out claybody, glaze and oxides. Test tiles can be so boring….

This guy got taken out by a UPS delivery truck one day. Sigh.

Glaze fire. Some nice effects, some strange surprises. It’s what happens. Good news is nothing broke and the warping was minimal. This project is very challenging in every way. work in progress.

Bisque fire successful! Seven feet of glazing next. This is about a quarter of whole project. Yikes!
