I will have a piece in this show. TUFT CROWD opens April 12th @brassworksgallery.bsky.social in Portland. This is going to be the softest and silliest show ever. Thanks for including me @melissamonroeart.bsky.social Any guesses of what I tufted?

My multidisciplinary art studio workshop is always evolving. Today I’m making 4 curtains panels from a secondhand curtain panel. Then I’ll get back to the project I’m procrastinating on. Here’s Rauschenberg making sewing super safe and ergonomic. Bonus: Is this pet giving OMEN?

Learned to make the @corefabrics belt bag at @craftemporiumpdx . These were gifts which incorporated found/secondhand materials or new from small local businesses. It may not look like art as resistance but it sure feels like it to me. Yes I’m holding my first bag like a trophy fish.

Bottom left is mustard shell and bright yellow vintage floral. Bottom right is a rusty corduroy with a yellow zipper modeled by a kid and cute dog.

And here’s the finished vase! I underglazed the design and then painted wax on before glazing to achieve a fun contrast in texture. ~ Melissa #pottery #ceramics #flowers #vase #art #pottersofbluesky #design #clay #PNW #flowerart

Aʻama crab jar with barnacle handle lid. This was a mix of vinyl patterns and glaze layering. ~Lance Fun fact: You can usually find these little guys (the real crabs) on the lava rocks near shore in Hawaii hopping from rock to rock. #pottery #ceramics #crab #hawaii #pottersofbluesky

I’m pretty sure I’ve decided it’s my own personal life’s mission to bring Meta to its knees. Just posted this on my Instagram in an effort to convince more friends to jump ship.

Here’s a set of cups we collaborated on. Lance threw each piece and Melissa designed the patterns. Vinyl stencils of the pattern were used to resist the glaze. What’s your favorite color? #pottery #ceramics #cups #art #design #pottersofbluesky #clay #PNW
