I've got some of my Oddities & Curiosities Expo hotels booked!! I've been working hard for this second year of Expo's and going to new cities is so exciting. (And going back home to Chicago, which is always nice.) I just needed a good reminder of the positive things coming up. ✨

Kitties and board games. (She blew on them for good luck...)

I've hunkered down, just working, working, working... all I know is clay, kiln fumes, and glaze-covered clothes at the moment. It's okay to be oblivious to the news/world for a while, right?

It's gotten cold enough that I have to encapsulate myself with my wall heater when I'm throwing pots now. Don't worry, I take down the fire hazard before I run the vented kiln. 🫠
This has been my safe haven lately.

I haven't been outside in days... finally checked the mail today and I cried. Today is the perfect day to get #pattiegonia merch. My trans friends, I see you and I love you. Thinking of you all desperately. 🏳️‍🌈💙

Today? I slept in, made brunch, lazily laid around and cross-stitched, and napped. The only thing I "watched" was the two fur kids fighting over how much lap space they got... and the only thing I listened to was a really good playlist and the heat kicking on in this negative degree weather. #MLKday

Stoked about all the new things I'm conjuring. 🧙🏼‍♀️

My Oddities & Curiosities Expo line-up this year! Hanging out in the MidWest this time and I'm excited to be back home in Chicago again to see my friends and fam. 🖤

I've literally just dropped myself into my work because of this country being on fire (damn, literally and figuratively 🙁)... I'm excited for the things I'm creating, but it's hard to be entirely optimistic about 2025.
So idk, here's the beginning stage of my new glaze test tiles... 🫠

I'm currently having an IG "Story Sale" to help me clear out smaller, easier-to-ship, items in order to repurchase clay in bulk for 2025. Please go check it out for last minute Creepmas Gifts, stocking stuffers, or a *just because* buy. I'm grateful for the support!

Just making that first post to break myself in... I'm a ceramics artist that makes Halloween/Horror/Occultism themed functional pieces. I loathe the rotten orange and am a Veteran. Also queer, child-free, and support POC and trans-humans. Hi! 💙
