More than ten pieces thrown before 10:00am!
Starting out with some simple “bottoms”… hope to be adding the sides later today!!!

Another clear day… not a cloud in the sky! Just starting the day with some heat & humidity… already feels like it’s going to be another hot one today. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!!!

A little early-morning stamping… working on my class demo placesetting challenge project. Dinner plate… salad plate… side bowl… serving bowl… tumbler… and the single handmade stamp that did all of the work!!! Coordinating in design… but not too matchy-matchy!

Sunrise serenity along the lake this morning.
Very little wind & very few clouds on the horizon.
A quiet start to another beautiful summer day.

A dozen ducklings… Mom looked calm but those little ones
were paddling their little feet as fast as they can!!!
A fun sight during my afternoon bike ride along the lake.

And that water?… STUNNING!!!

Starting today in the studio… painting accents & details of colored flashing slips onto my latest set of stamped mugs. This set will be waiting for my next soda kiln firing in early September!
