Back in my happy place. #clay #PotteryWheel #pottery #ceramics

A freshly wheel-thrown vase on the potter’s wheel. The clay is light brown and has a soft sheen of wetness. It is round with a wide, flared neck. Blurred in the background: a shelf, a small kiln, a sink with a window above it.

I’ve been making bedside water bottles for years but I don’t make them very often. They’re inspired by Mexican botellones—small clay water jugs with an accompanying cup which serves as a cover. Sometimes the cup has a handle. I’ve also discovered a Congolese version of the botellón. It’s such a simple and effective idea that it’s no surprise it would appear in multiple cultures. #pottery #ceramics #beautility

A spherical, decorative ceramic bottle with a small cup on top that acts as a cover when not in use. The piece features a textured off-white surface, aqua accents, and intricate geometric patterns. The background is a plain brown color.

The same object but in this photo, the cup sits next to the bottle reveling the bottle’s tall slender neck. The cup and the bottle are decorated to match each other—with aqua triangle accents and decorative rings around the neck of the vase and the foot of the cup.

After I left this exhibit, everything else looked gray by comparison.

A couple favorite Earth Tone pots from my last kiln load. I sent them to a gallery this week for an upcoming show. The theme is geometric patterning. I can’t wait to see the work from the other makers. It will be very cool to see everyone’s pottery grouped together—unique, yet united by a common theme. #pottery #ceramics #WildClay

Just did a kintsugi workshop today as birthday gift from my wife. Even though we didn't get to do the entire process ourselves (takes over a month) and didn't use real gold (it's a tin alloy), it was an awesome experience! Hoping to find the time to do a proper course in the future.
