Geometric dragon travel mug keeps the rain out of your coffee. It's been a long drought, hopefully it doesn't last much longer. #ceramics #pottery #art

Forest cup. The red sumac backdrop has already faded to brown. Winter is coming. #ceramics #pottery #art

Last day in harbor park in Rockland for the year. Autumn is going quickly. #ceramics #pottery #art

It's just never been a problem--usually when a glaze doesn't work for this, it just doesn't cut at all. I've only found a couple that it really works well on.

Nope, at the very end after the glaze is on.

A little stack of ceramic plant mugs with engravings of ballpoint pen drawings of things growing in the background. Very mixed media in their creation. #ceramics #pottery #art

An AI produced article about how being able to write articles is still worth something. God damn, we've really hit peak irony.

Time to repair my decaying home enough to get it through another winter, restock inventory, and prepare for another long, dark, empty season. Most of this life has been a lonely, miserable, vapid waste, and every year, turning that around becomes less likely. I hate winter. #ceramics #pottery #art

Wolf River. They're very big but not great for much other than cider and pie

Almost done picking the tree, then it's cider time. Pretty good year--the apples are small but they're good and there are a lot of them. #apples #garden #maine #autumn

For my balloon 🎈 day, may I be so bold to ask for a little share so that my art reaches fellow fantasy and mythology lovers? 🫣✨

Maine is really pretty. #maine #ocean #atlantic #landscape

Two tables with tablecloths on them covered in blue, green and red pottery. The sihouette of an individual sitting in a stone bench is cut by the sun reflecting off the shimmering blue Atlantic ocean. Scattered trees have the first tingles of fall colors.

At Mosman Park in Searsport until 4 today. After spending a huge chunk of my life in a desert wasteland, the sea seems like such a powerful, surreal, impossible phenomenon #pottery #ceramics #art
