I posted some chocolate clay test tiles recently, and this gorgeous green glaze was the winning contender for my first pieces. I also would up with some cute little drips. #pottery #ceramics #handmade

I tossed my typical surface decoration techniques out the window for my recent soda firing. Texture, darting, flashing slip, waxes…and I LOVE IT. I wish I could participate in a soda firing more often. #pottery

A wheel thrown mug, altered by darting. Flashings slip yielded a matte beige surface with areas of darker tan/orange.

Recently participated in a soda firing, and all I can say is that I’m obsessed. I’ve been wanting to explore different surface decoration techniques lately, and I couldn’t be happier with how this mug turned out. #pottery #ceramics #handmade #sodafired #mug

The world may be on fire, but I’m over here finding a small serotonin boost with fall leaves and silly pottery. #pottery

Taking a little appreciation gift to my physical therapist this morning, and sending a huge shout-out to all the professionals who help keep us potters going. I’ve been fortunate to have really great help along the way. #pottery #physicaltherapy #mug

A series of vases that I’d like to continue exploring. I love how the colors shift in different light. #pottery #ceramics #art

A trio of vases, each different height and shape, but gently rounded and bulbous. They are glazed in a combination of maroon, copper, brown, and green. The second photo shows the same vases in softer, indirect lighting.

I usually put a lot of color into my pottery, but sometimes a simple white is perfection. Pretty #tulips make a bright and cheerful combination..which we all need right now. Have a beautiful weekend! #pottery #ceramics

A day late for the cute hashtag, but I made my own #superbowl this morning. In my head it seems so enormous when I’m throwing it, but by the time it’s done I’m like “Really, that’s it?” 😅 This is about four pounds of clay, 4 inches tall and 11.5” wide. #pottery #ceramics #maker #handmade

I made this mug two years ago for a friend who is a huge Eagles fan. He calls it his lucky mug, and perhaps the mojo is working..? His beloved team is heading to the Super Bowl! #pottery #ceramics #mugshotmonday #superbowl

A mug with a rich glaze combination of green, white, and black. The green and white blend together to firm a mottled effect on the rim.

I want to be courageous enough to post non-perfect things here. Reaching waaaay out of my comfort zone with some #underglaze surface design today. This is just a test piece and I’m learning so much as I go along! Excited to see what happens next #pottery #ceramics #pottersofbluesky

#raku, anyone? I don’t get many opportunities to experiment with this magical process, but it’s yielded some of my favorite and least predictable pieces. #pottery #ceramics

A slender vase gently flaring at the top, glazed in various hues with flashes of metallic copper, reds, and hints of blue.

Handbuilt freeform bowl. This one has a few pinholes from outgassing so I should probably refire it, but it’s so pretty. Should I risk it, or leave it perfectly imperfect? #pottery #ceramics #handbuilt

I made this urn last summer for a loved one. It’s possibly the most challenging thing I’ve ever done, mainly due to the emotional output, but I’m glad i did it #pottery #ceramics

I don’t have a good track record with houseplants, but this lil’ baby is thriving in this pint-sized planter I made! I’m absolutely obsessed with how the warm copper glaze glows in the late afternoon sunlight. #pottery
