I’m a potter in the Pacific Northwest. I play with mud.
May is coming! Here’s what’s lined up for the month… and some soda fired cups.

I’ll be at Magnuson this weekend with my pottery. Maybe I’ll see you there.

The market yesterday started lovely then devolved into an atmospheric river. I’m lucky to have left with my toes! How Pacific Northwest! :)

Day 18: A batch of squid mugs. I’ve never done overglazing, as far as I can remember. I’m processesing the implications of a new technique.

Day 15: Soda Fire Earring Dishes

Apparently you can hang earrings from the holes to drape inside or out, and put other jewelry inside. I was inspired by jewelry friends.

Here is my next upcoming show poster. I’ll be selling my handmade #pottery. If you’re in Seattle that weekend come on out. Also, I’m learning to use hashtags here. This Bluesky is new to me.

These are all stamped now and the bottoms slightly shaped. They’re all formed and ready for drying. I’d better get them out of the sun.
