Inspired by the majestic oak trees at The Morton Arboretum in Lisle, IL. Still contemplating glazes on this one. The vase measures 26" tall with a 6" circumference. #whitestoneware #clayfever #kempertools #illinoisartist

For today’s full moon, my second Moonpie Girl. The moon is from a pattern by Emilio Pucci who designed far-out uniforms for Braniff Airlines in the 60s. Light-up dress by legendary 60s designer Diana Dew.

A bowl inspired by splashing my feet in the creek in the backyard of my childhood home...hunting for frogs, gazing at dragonflies.

A week ago I posted my most recent Moonpie Girl.
This one was my first. She wears a vintage mini dress that I once tried on. There are references to RC Cola, and the Moonpie is banana.
