Contrast. Opposite ideas. Maybe if you listen to the other side you’ll discover a new way of seeing…. And creating!

Haha! A tight fit. Thanks Carole.
Ughhhhhh! These are so freaking amazing!
I had a similar situation last spring….and it JUST fit! My fingers and toes are crossed for you.
Always measure the kiln!!! lol close fit. I actually had to bisque it in a bigger kiln lol.
Fingers and toes crossed this one will survive.
How’s everyone else Monday going?

Here is my #studiopup
I started to push out the bottoms of my slab built mugs and cups two years ago.
When you slab build, the wall of your piece meets the floor at 90 degrees. This never sat well with me as I wanted to make forms that were softer.
And a spoon fits nicely inside if you need to stir.

#thepanicisover let’s gooooooooooo!
My small kiln is hooked up and on! I haven’t had a kiln since I moved studios in July of last year so to say I feel l good is an understatement.
I’m so happy!!!!! Thanks Max.

But onwards we go…! ?

dog, cat, stack o bowls.
The vibe is weird and scary,
yet the animals are cute and hairy.
Also I can’t stop making things because the world is falling apart. I love/hate that. Anyone else?

Mike makes great pots using leftover clay/glaze materials that other potters give to him. He is a pottery chemistry wizard and is giving with his knowledge.
His pots are straightforward with a twist, which sets them apart. A Manitoba gem, give him a follow.

Me too! - nice mug Mike.
Lollllllllllll best kind of bonds. 💕
Hm. Interesting……. And onwards we go, trying to un-puzzle the puzzle that is Bluesky. (But I like it!)
I love your work! Thank you Bluesky for connecting me with yet another kick-ass Canadian clay person!!!!

The one thing I fear: not being able to edit!!!!! 🫣
Yasssssssssssss!
This mug was part of a limited edition made a couple years back.
It features a line drawing of a dandelion which I glazed with a drippy green and yellow glaze on a pink background, gold lustre on the head of the dandelion.
These were some of my favourite pieces. Thank you for sharing!
Ughhhhhh!!!!! Oh my gosh! I am elated at the moment- I made six of those Dandelion mugs and I am so glad to see a picture of one again! I have this special relationship with dandelions (I’m horribly allergic to spring) but I can have the roots in tea and they are so good for you. Thank you for this!
That’s so great to hear. Everyone always asks about mugs, but these sippers have my heart forever. Thank you for letting me know you enjoy them too. 💕☺️
