Some days the clay teaches me more than I teach it.
Today's lesson? Patience.
Not the kind that waits passively-but the kind that stays grounded when everything wobbles. That trusts the process even when nothing looks like progress.
That's the kind I'm learning.

Here’s a mixing bowl I threcfor a friend. #potteryofbluesky #ceramics #art

A bowl with a sgraffito design of a crow with plants and stars circling it.

A red bowl with the image of a capybara sitting in hot, steaming water with orange slices floating.

A bowl with a beach scene etched into it: a woman on a surf board dives below waves. Underneath her is fish and jelly fish and seaweed.

More #sgraffito. This bowl is still greenware.

3 pots sit infront of a white background with flowers and cherries around them. It’s an overhead shot and you can see the opening is hearts. The pots are red white blue and black.

These started out as valentine’s vases, but someone suggested I throw some sake glasses and make a set! They do pour rather nicely!

More fresh out of the kiln. Still experimenting with marbling. I love the look from a distance. Still working on consistant sizing!

These flowers and pot are perfect for each other!

I made this ‘Throwing Affirmations’ video the first week Trump was in office. As a trans person, I’m feeling particularly unsafe atm. I’m doing my best to remain grounded. I’m going to be spending a lot of time at my wheel the next 4 years.

I have a series that I’ve dubbed Throwing Affirmations where I practice repeating affirmations related to life and pottery. Hope you enjoy!

A freshly thrown bottle l sitting on a dirty bat. The bottle tappers until 2/3rds where it angles in at the neck and then goes straight up. In the background you can see potters wheels.

Here’s what I threw today. Attempting to make oil bottles. Playing with shapes and trying to figure out shrinkage for the spouts.

Thanks! It’s so true! I feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface! 😂

Thank you!

More #sgraffito. Can’t stop, won’t stop. 😂

Really happy with the way this one turned out. Could see #sgrafitto becoming my thing for awhile! 😂

Pots fresh from the wheel.

Kept this one top-secret for a while—it was a gift for a friend! 🎁 This piece is extra special because it’s a collaboration with my partner. She handled the text stamping, though she lovingly referred to her handiwork as ‘serial killer writing’.😂

I just threw this vase last night! I’m playing with shaping the mouth as a heart for Valentine’s Day. Only my second time using porcelain, I’m really happy with how it turned out!

Here was a series of surprise mugs I did awhile back. I absolutely love the glazing and who doesn’t love a surprise at the end of your cup of coffee???
