Rescuing the apples in the rain before Storm Amy knocks them off the trees! A bumper crop this year

There are so many butterflies out at the moment! The red admirals were loving the plums that had split on the tree (we had quite a bit of rain after a dry spell) and this small tortoiseshell took a fancy the wet clay lid.

Some of my favourite things..walking on the beautiful island of Inishbofin examining the hues and tones of summer on the coast and collecting colour inspiration

Fabulous weather in Connemara this week, the vibrant summer colours inspiring this glaze

I tried layering glazes and wax resist on these beakers, I like the results

This little fellow passed me in the shed on his way out to the garden. We mow a path to walk down through the fields, leaving all the grass long, and in the evening loads of black slugs come out onto the short grass, a smorgasbord for our hedgehog population #wildlife #biodiversity #hedgehog #native

Some work in progress, Ivy leaves Lino printed on to paper and transferred to a greenware coffee mug, the print came out cleaner the expected.. I’m looking forward to seeing how they look when glazed

A family of Thrush have fledged down in the apple trees, the young ones still unconcerned by our presence, crashing about, learning to fly. Here is the finishing of a set of eggcups inspired by these beautiful birds.. #eggcup #breakfast #handmade #nativebirds #songthrush #ceramic

I was brought for a walk by a newly fledged thrush this evening! The thrush even stopped for a little forage in the longer grass before settling in the apple tree, apparently unconcerned by my presence. Magic! #wildlife #nature #birds #garden

The sun does shine in Ireland, occasionally, I swear! Here’s some pics that include blue sky and sunshine to prove it! 😉 #ceramics #handmade #Irishdesign #picnic #bluesky #sunshine

Showing some of my printing process (ivy tendrils) The liquid underglaze is a very different consistency to printing ink and needs some tidying up as I go! #ceramics #print #linoprint #ivy #botanicprint #process

What a day! The colours are such a vibrant spectrum of greens and golds

I’ve been exploring with Lino printing underglaze straight onto bisque ware and these are the first out of the kiln. So happy with the level of detail!
