Leaning into the fantasy of my art- my self. This wheel thrown porcelain mug is fired to cone 10 reduction. Adorned with shino scales 🐉🔥🐊 #pottery #cone10 #dragon #ceramics #fantasyart

A mug made by a potter sits against a white background. Its texture is rough and scales like a crocodile or dragon- its hues are deep greens and oranges.

Two works in progress 🫖 #pottery #wheelthrown #porcelain #ceramics #genielamp

Two handmade and crafted porcelain genie lamps and bottles sit against a brick back drop they are said to be works in progress. The forms are whimsical and magical- reminiscent of ancient genie bottles and lamps

It holds about 2.2 pounds!! They also have a 100 dollar one but this one is so perfectly small- a bit tricky to center on but so much fun for tiny things!

I just blocked a potter on TikTok for using AI to make wheel throwing content. If you are a potter- drop your work below! #supportrealart #ceramics #pottery #budvase #handmade

A bubble bud vase sits against a white backdrop- it has a black matte silky glaze with hints of grey.

A stoneware pinch cup sits against a white backdrop. Its surface looks like the sand meeting the ocean- with mixtures of whites blues and beiges. Its surface looks flows and pebbles.
