I’m painting a new batch of salt and pepper shakers. The pairs include octopi, aliens, cats in space and the Phoenix. Woohoo! #terrikern #terrikernstudios

When I’m painting @maycocolors underglaze blends, I lay out the colors from light to dark.

I just finished the black line work on this turtle bowl. Swimming with the fishes sounds like a great way to spend this hot August day!🐠🐟#underglaze #terrikern #terrikernstudios

I like to color block my designs with yellow (Squash) when I’m painting over blue. Once the yellow layer is dry, I’ll paint the design with several layers of off-white. This video has been sped up x3.

Thanks to my studio neighbor for the video, @drawn2mike

I spent the past few weeks cleaning and purging in my studio! It feels good to start working in a calmer space. I’m rearranging my @maycocolors underglazes as I dream up new color combinations. #terrikern #terrikernstudios

This piece is called “Missing”. It’s my first attempt at a new kind of fox. She gazes directly at the viewer, wanting to see and be seen. Her tail of many colors mimics fire, with the embers floating up to the sky and turning into leaves. Learn More at TerriKernClasses.com

I like sharing the process of building the painted surfaces on my pieces. These are a few videos (pardon the shaky camera work) of the finished piece “Familiar Waters”, from my last post. Video 1 shows the painted underglaze surface.... Learn More at TerriKern.com

This is from a series of bottle forms I created from my show at the Taft Museum of Art in 2024-2025. The form was inspired by Chinese porcelain vessels that sat upon wooden bases that are held within the Taft Museum’s collection. This piece is titled “Familiar Waters”.

I’ve been away for a long time. Being back in the studio and returning to work that I walked away from at the end of 2024...Stay Tuned! #studiolife #underglaze #underglazepainting #underglazepaintingceramic #terrikernstudios #terrikern #pendletonartcentercincinnati #studiocollection2cincy

Words cannot express my gratitude for the opportunity to exhibit my ceramic work within the walls of the @taftmuseum. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.❤️taftmuseumdiscovered #terrikernstudios #terrikern #pendletonartcentercincinnati #makeitmayco #maycocolors

Another work day in the studio!
