A fox in front of a lit house.
I cleaned the solar panel on the little house so it shines again at night. Under the fern it’s kind of magical. Yes, i made the fox. #artsky #claysky #gardensky #witchsky #druidsky #whimsisky

I made some things today. No ai was used in the process. It is actually for a friend who is turning 60. Since I couldn’t join for the celebration, making something from scratch is the next best thing! #claysky #ceramics #sardines #functionalpottery
Three small clay figures. A cute ghost with dark eyes and blood at the bottom of the sheet, a black witch's hat with colorful patterns, and a red ghost with horns and a mischievous grin.
Gathering the clay gang for October. Kitty is missing (still needs to be painted) — but little red ghost with horns has spontaneously joined us. Welcome! 😄
Have a great start to #Spooktober, everyone! And stay creative! 🖤🎃

A filled soda kiln.
Helped fill up the #kiln for a #sodafiring today. I learned a ton. I’m grateful for the opportunity.

I started some shark-centered #pottery. My goal is to really finish them nicely… which is something I’m still learning how to do.
I’ll post pics when they don’t just look like blobs o’ clay. 😆

Three small, handmade figures made of air-drying clay. A ghost, a witch's hat, and a cat.
I warned you I would use it. 😅
Well... 😆
Next time: Coloring these babies with acrylic paint. Weeeh! 😜

My cow snoot came out of bisque after one month of waiting (It was too hot to fire)! I gave it a solid underglazing and will send it back through bisque… but while I liked it very much before, the underglaze is about as charming as it could be.

Some spoon rests made of dark brown clay and glazed in blue. They are in shapes of shells and hearts with bites taken out of them.
I made some #spoonrests . I think the #glaze turned out really well.

A ceramic heart with a tree growing out of it. The red heart is covered with black leaves and designs.
My test #sculpture turned out well. I will continue to work on this concept.

The sculpture is coming along. I’ll go work on it again today! #ceramicsky #artsky #claysky #ceramics #sculpture
My “Hugoyle” (Hugo gargoyle) - the grotesque pig-dog that was supposed to be my dog, Hugo. 😁 No one can say it doesn’t have gargoyle-ality. #claysky #ceramics #artsky #gargoyles
A table with 4 ceramic works in progress. There are 3 soap dishes with organically shaped holes and a cow muzzle with a tongue licking the nose.
Cow snoot and soap dishes. The soap dishes were just a bit too dry to put on their feet.

So this is the last time I try to use this clay for sculpture that needs to keep its shape. In spite of of me letting it firm up, the clay buckled. I have since cut off the bottom. #whitebear was recommended. I know part of the problem must be me also. #claysky #ceramicsky #artsky #sculpture
Who doesn’t need a cute ceramic cow snoot in their kitchen?!?
While I still despise the clay, I’m determined to use it up.

I spent time working on that heart sculpture. I designed two more shapes for the studio’s soda firing spectacular at the end of September.
Wishing you a joyful Lughnasadh filled with love and light!

A handbuilt egg tray sized for six eggs. The tray is made of still soft clay and impressed with a pattern made by rolling the slab with a crochet doily. The tray holds three wooden eggs and is resting on a green quilters mat.
Why are smaller versions of things always cuter?

Earlier this year I received a grant from the Manitoba Arts Council to take this pit fire workshop. Yesterday I spent the day in clay things with other artists. What a gift.

In an effort to stave off the darkness I have been regularly going to a pottery studio near my new apartment. This is my first complete piece! He is smol but I love him. #pottery #ceramics #claysky

Combining underglazes with scraffito technique. The carved lines will end up being much lighter after firing (Standard Clay 768 has a tendency to fire to light gray at Cone 6). Thinking about what darker clay body would work. #claysky have any suggestions for electric kiln Cone 6?
White ceramic cups with colorful stenciled shaped
Close up shot of white ceramic cup with pastel stencils in purple, green, and pink.
The cups I stenciled are out of the bisque kiln!! I can’t decide if the one on the right is giving PeeWee Herman or airport carpet vibes.
