Hello!! Sorry it's been a while, but my thesis has taken over my life. It's finally up, and it's exceeded my expectations! Now I just have to focus on my writing, and I'll be graduating in May! #pottery #ceramics #sculpture #installation

Hey ya'll, I'm kind of tired of screaming into the void every morning and thinking about what I can do. Recently, I've been thinking about how amazing the clay community rallied to support civil rights and make change in 2020 through what we do best; building community and making things...

This is the last one from the firing! During my classes, I've been working on some cups for an upcoming woodfire to see how this translates to a different body and firing. I'm hoping to get some sweet woodash drips! #pottery #ceramics

Another one! I have a few more started in my studio, so over the next few days, I'll add the rest of the finished ones as well as some in progress. #pottery #ceramics #earthenware #handmade

I do make cups and stuff, I promise. But I really love forms that leave the field for function open: Vases, boxes, censers, platters. These open ended containers allow for endless play on my end and versatile use on the owners’ end. It’s a collaborative field and I love that. Do what you want 💖

I'm finally getting around to documenting the work from my last glaze firing. I'm really looking forward to post thesis when I can really start exploring this body of work through different forms. #pottery #ceramics #handmade #earthenware

I had a thesis committee check-in on Friday. Things are getting real now! In a few months, I'll be graduating, and the job search is starting to warm up. #gradschool #ceramics #mfa

A great read! I severely dislike the gatekeeping and snobbery that some people hold over being an artist and artistic practice. I firmly believe that if you can manifest your ideas into form through creative expression, then you are an artist.

Some older work for this Thursday! I never thought I'd be doing this or that it was a thing that even existed until I took a wheel class as an elective at college many years ago. The next thing I knew, I grew a beard and had an art degree. #pottery #ceramics #pottersofbluesky

Another jar from last semester! The new ones came out really well, I just need to get some pictures of them. It amazed me how much my work has changed over the past few years, but I guess that's what grad school does. #pottery #ceramics #handmade #art #earthenware

For those local to Orlando, or passing through, I’ll be using this platform to help with promotion and engagement for ceramic exhibitions I host here in town. For y’all not local, I’m building a website. It’s in progress, but let’s throw it into the sky anyway: www.crossdraftgallery.com

Im you resident Appalachian academic, artist, storyteller, holler woman, making art about Mountain folklife. You'll find me reconciling the land-based practices I grew up with and the effects of extractive industries, exploring ideas of Appalachian identity, making art with Fungi.

Everything is an opportunity. Each class they make a temporary sculpture out of their failed pots as a collaborative exercise and to have some fun with the frustration that comes along with learning. They named this one "Hubert"

I started to feel like having my students throw out their first cylinders was wasted potential. To fix that, I decided to have them make assemblages out of all their intro cylinders. I'm trying to think of the wheel as a tool and potential ways to work outside of just the functional vessles.

Trying out a new platform today, so we’ll see how this goes. The natural world is certainly a draw for me with its abundance of hugely interesting negative spaces and magical transformative states. #ceramics #clay #porcelain #resin #glass #cup #saucer #vessel #ceramics #studio #artist #ephemeral

Really grateful to all of you who got Let’s Cut Up Dad! into the Godless top ten. Keep supporting retailers who contribute to worthy causes like @godlesshorrors. In the meantime, for those of you who prefer printed and bound volumes, I have one more hardcover that needs a good home.

Sometimes, it's nice to step into the woodshop for a few hours. Now I have to get back into my ceramics cave, the thesis clock is ticking 🕰🙃🫠

One of last year’s early texture explorations. I love the subtle white on white drips, but I’ve since been exploring a more layered effect, too. I can also see this with a bit of sage green drippiness. So many ideas, so few hours. #texture #texturedpottery #pottersofbluesky #pottery #ceramics #clay

“Winter Moss” curvy vase. Medium-sized with textured sand/stone-like slip that has a mossy appearance. Translucent white slip with more opaque drips.

Would anyone have any idea on how to create a feed for open calls? I think it would be pretty awesome for all of us to have a central place to post all upcoming shows and opportunities.
