Big learning curves learning to sculpt animals! Learned it's helpful to have a 3-D image to base it off of rather than a picture. But I love this little chipmunk! Ignore the drying wax on its ears and tail! #Ceramics #Clay #ArtProcess #WorkInProgress #Sculpture #StudioLife #GlazingTrails

Took a sculpture class this weekend. Here's a sneak peek of one of them! The beak has already fallen off once so unsure if it will survive firing! #Ceramics #Clay #ArtProcess #WorkInProgress #Sculpture #StudioLife #GlazingTrails

A little playtime in the studio. I’ve been nudged into trying forms and ideas I might never have wandered toward on my own, and it’s been a fun kind of stretching. Which one are you drawn to? #Ceramics #Pottery #GlazingTrails

Experimenting using one of my favorite ferns - maidenhair - and underglaze color. What do you think? #fernsonpottery #colorexperiments #underglaze #naturepottery #pottery #handmade #thrownplates

Love how these swirls turned out! Which do you like best? #swirls #glazingexperiment #colorcombos #ceramicbowls

Excited to see how these turn out! Which one do you prefer? #maidenhairferns #underglaze #natureonpottery

This one’s a favorite — earthy tan, deep red, and moody blue melting down the sides like a slow, earthy waterfall. I never know exactly how these glazes will turn out, and that’s the magic. #functionalart #glazemelt #kilnsurprise #ceramicmug

Had some fun experimenting with colors and these winding dots around the rims. Three bowls, three vibes. Which one do you like best? #colorfulpottery #dotpattern #experimentsarefun #smallbatchbowls #wheelthrown #handdecorated

This one surprised me—in the best way. Glazed in moody blue with an off-center splash that shifts with the light. #playingwithcolors #smallbowls #handmadeceramics #smallbatchceramics

Made by hand and finished with joyful, colorful splatters—because plates should have fun too. #wabisabi #saladplate #playingwithcolors #organicshapes

Part of a one-time glaze experiment. A great catch-all for life’s little things. #smalldish #handmadeceramics #experimentsarefun #smallbatchceramics

Hand-built and one of a kind, this tall piece works as a vase or a glass—your choice. #slabbuilt #elegantcup #richreds #pottery

This handmade salad plate features rings of color—soft, spontaneous, and one of a kind. #perfectlyimperfect #handmadepottery #smallbatchpottery #playingwithcolors

Glazed in layered, sea-toned blues that pool and shift with light. Every angle catches something different. #pottery #mugs #wheelthrown #wheelthrownmugs #playingwithcolor

One of a kind and full of quiet character. The browns blend like layers of soil—subtle, rich, and grounding. #pottery #mugs #wheelthrown #wheelthrownmugs #earthypottery
