Work from home? Why yes. Set up my in-kitchen studio tucked between the fridge and pantry, this Sunday. The drinks cabinet is just off-screen. How convenient! I get to supervise homeschool, answer to “Mom!” a GAZILLION times a day, guard the fridge from marauding preteens and turn around for Happy hour all from the same perch. Maybe I’ll even be able to pinch a pot or two 🤔 😂 . #whatareyougoingtodo #newnormal #artistlife #pinchbypinch #makeartcarryon #Makersgonnamake

I’ve had so much going on these past weeks that I’ve not had much studio time and I’m craving it! Can’t wait to glaze these and the rest of the bisqued load on my shelves. I love the purity of these pieces, especially after I’ve sanded them bone smooth. The glaze, however light handed I am, is like a protective coat and takes away a certain vulnerability, don’t you think?

Spring is in the air. Hand pinched stoneware plate. 6.75” x 1”.

Porcelain rocking bowls, hand pinched — such an elemental handbuilding technique and so time intensive. I love the back to basics quality of making these bowls and try to elevate the simple form by thinning the walls as much as I can, refining the rims and finger-smoothing the hand dimpled surface for a natural undulating texture.

In the Orcas library case this January, a sampling of my ceramic work, from early pieces I made in Singapore, one of a kind experiments that I have kept and works in current fav forms and textures. It was a good exercise to gather these together and notice the thread or ‘voice’ running through my art practice over time and place. Please stop by the @orcaslibrary and have a peek when you get the chance. Thanks to the library for making space to show artwork year round!
