There is so much color coming at you down here in Oaxaca. It inspired me to try some new color combinations. Yellow, pink and purple are all colors out of my comfort zone.

A new friend
On our trip through the sky, we made a friend named Spot who was also flying to Oaxaca!
On The Road To Oaxaca!
My little pup Paw-casso and I are on our way to a big art adventure in Oaxaca.
We don’t have a clue what to expect, but you don’t want to miss whatever happens next!
During our journey through the sky, we saw many exciting sights, including the awe-inspiring -AND ACTIVE volcano, Popocatepetl.
Who knows what else we might find during our flight over this land of magic?
Keep watching this space to see!
Kiln firing 24 January 2023
I just opened the mini kiln, and welcomed 8 new cups to the world.
Some of the cups are decorated with an experimental woodcut transfer process.This is a significant firing, because it is the FINAL FIRING for this season. I won’t be making any more pottery until Summer 2023.
swipe or use arrows to see all the pottery
If you’d like to see them (and more) in person. They will be on display this friday (jan 27th) at the Pendleton Art Center – Cincinnati.
2023-01-21 Kiln Opening
I had a small kiln firing last night (8 cups – 1 plate)
Here are the results!
Use the arrows or swipe to see them allIt’s really hard to get an idea of what a 3d cup looks like from a photo. A video with a 360 view is a little bit better. Seeing them in person-and being able to pick them up and drink from them is still best.
For your reference, I sell cups for $45 and plates for $75. They are only available in person NO ONLINE SALES. You need to pick them up to ‘know’ if it’s the right pot for you. You can find them either on my front porch, or at my studio at the Pendleton Art Center on Final Fridays and by appointment.
