This is finally launching tomorrow. What took so long? Gotta onboard the charity before you launch the campaign, and it took a while to find one that met the mission brief and was willing to sign up. But after making phonecalls every day for 3 weeks we did it! So be ready! Link coming tomorrow!

A collector of mine reached out with a touching story — her home had burned down in the Eaton fires and she was able to salvage a few of my works, but they’ve transformed into different colors, more like raku. 🤍🤍🤍

Happy Lunar New Year 🧧 year of the snake! This based on #bernardpalissy, Cartes Postales, my solo show at Stroll Garden last November. I made a special manganese crawl glaze for the snake skin 🪱 The real Palissy casts his work from living animals! 😱 No one died from mine, I just made coils

Building on a previous thread, you might like to know that because Yale's Beinecke Library holds the Gertrude Stein & Alice B. Toklas papers, its collection includes this luscious painted portrait by artist Marie Laurencin of the pair's poodle, Basket II collections.library.yale.edu/catalog/2068...
