Peeling a crow off a mug! Hopefully the glaze won't run too much!

So satisfying!! My brother has a dark sense of humour and asked me to make a few of these for him to give out for Christmas.

Kiln loaded up! I'm using a local high school's kiln in exchange for teaching a pottery class. Students work on the bottom.

This is Bell! She is a pomeranian chihuahua mix. She has cheated death no less than 8 times! She was born on Bell Island, Newfoundland, so we call her the Belle of the Bay.

Not so good here in Newfoundland. The wildfires are close and the downtown is full of thick smoke. It is so thick! This would normally be a clear sky. #Newfoundland #st.john's #wildfires #signalhill #paddyspond

I don't know if this is right but we were out getting ice cream last night when we saw whales breaching. This sight seeing boat raced across the bay to get closer. I filmed the whole thing, but edited down here. Thoughts? #whales #whalewatching #whalewatchingtour #newfoundland #tooclose #wildlife

A double walled vase! This has sea creatures on the inside. It seemed fitting considering the whale season we are having!

I was commissioned to make this mug for $40. Now, they want to negotiate my quoted price. It's personalized, so what do I do!! #pottery #ceramic #craft #craftbusiness #trouble #negotiating #art #craft #personalized

The beauty is in the flaws! You can see bees and flowers through the honeycomb, and the yellow has a nice drippy quality! But some underglaze bled through. What do you think?
