Excited to announce that I’ve finally set up an online shop. I can only have 12 items at a time but I’m loading up the shop this weekend! Watch this space for announcements - they will probably go live next week

I burned my pinky and needed to keep it clean, so throwing was out, but I had some fun with hand building organic shapes and slip stenciling.

He was meant to be a toothbrush holder, but the holes are too thin. Now he menacingly holds a scissors. Try and take it if you dare.

Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity.
You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid.
So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

In love with this Coyote glaze, Ice Blue, with its clear ice finish at the top that gives way to the cloudy veins of earthy surprises to ground the piece. Always a surprise and always beautiful.

Getting this piece ready to be auctioned. Photographing these shiny glazes is alway difficult. I want to capture all the swirling universes that you can see in person. #gingerjar #bluejasper
