That's wonderful they are back!

A 6 image montage of raku pottery work by Alchemy. On the top left is a stout vase with reds, blues and violets. To the right is a teardrop shaped piece in green and red with bubbles. To the far right is a copper coloured vase in a classic shape with greys and browns and glaze peeling. On the bottom row is a bulbous turquoise vase with raku cracks and flecks of gold. In the centre is a gazing orb in coppers, silvers and blues on a pedestal. On the bottom right is a turquoise vase with cracking and bubbles in a classic shape.
I make raku pottery.
Which means clay, fire, smoke . . . and a little bit of chaos and magic.โจ
These are my newest vessels from the flames. ๐ฅ
If you feel like helping them find their people, a like or share means so much.๐
Wishing you joy in the chaos ๐
I can only imagine, but at least there are beautiful beaches and a great climate for gardening.
We are in a conservative rural area, but the politics here is a little less nasty fortunately.
Thank you for your kindness. She deserved a better world and I hope that one day we have that.

mugs with blue pink and white glazing representing the trans flag
It's #portfolioday, and I should probably share some pictures of my work, but we are still grieving the loss of our niece.
It was her lived experience and our desire for people to be loved and accepted for who they are that inspired our trans mug fundraiser.

Please share ๐๐

Also please note, we won't be shipping any orders out till the weekend.
We will be donating the proceeds from our fundraising to Camp Fyrefly at the request of our sister in memory of our niece.
It's a camp/retreat for queer/trans youth 14-21.
I will also donate 10% of any other sales today.
Hug your people, tell them you love them. Still cant believe she is gone.

Thanks!
A dried out allium flowe from last year caught between some forsythia branches. You can see some dried leaves and green shoots in the background.
Found this allium skeleton while tidying the garden today!

And thank you for your understanding and kind words.
To live it, and see it happen to another generation is heart breaking.
