Artist, mom of a medically complicated kid, potter, and a mouthy broad who cannot be quiet when people are being hurt.
Getting started on my next piece. This is one of 8 parts.

My Three Kings are complete. At 10 hours each the 12” figures are my most complex build yet. I am super happy with them.

Almost done glazing my three wise men. Ten hours of glazing and one yet to go.

Works in progress. A friend commissioned me to do Three Kings. This has been a fun challenge. So far so good.

Today ( and yesterday) I am resisting through joy. A friend told me not to let them steal that. It was a brutal week. But once again I found peace and strength in my studio. I am so grateful for every moment I have in there.

My first bust. My inner bad ass. The version of me that shows up when my son needs help. The version of me that I hope shows up to get us through the insanity ahead.

May 14, 2021. Sometimes the break and the repair say it better. Somehow this one feels apropos again.

Okay, let’s get this thing rolling. I sat for a week wondering if this was going to be a pottery page, a medical mom page, a political ire Page, or what. Well, I have decided all of the above with a focus on pottery because we all need more creativity in the world.

20 pots in 20 days, here is #1
