Textured tiles now accented with colored slips & drying in a plastic grid to avoid warping! Can’t wait to fire these to see the colors pop… and quick… “4×4” is just two weeks away! Yikes!!!

Some early morning textured tiles in the works… getting ready for “4×4 : FOUR MAKERS” which is just about two weeks away! A mix of textures using my own handmade stamps & some using my favorite MKM Pottery Tools handrollers!

Playing with some of my MKM Pottery Tools handrollers… making mini textured tiles with a master plan?! I’ve got a themed project in the making… and this is the start of the first of four pieces!

I love how one of my skinny vertical ClayQuilts fits perfectly in some of those hard-to-fill spaces… like between cabinets & door frames. Well it looks great… as Tracy finally got around to hanging up a Christmas gifts she purchased at my Holiday Home Show… last November! Just in time for another #TileTuesday!!!

Spent a little time this morning “refreshing” my ClayQuilt installation on the corner of my condo building. It has been out there for years… but a few tiles had fallen off. So I replaced them today… and let’s just say, turned out it was a lot more than “a few” missing!!!

A little cloudy this morning, so I went into the studio for another 10×10 challenge… and I tackled a batch of rectangle tiles that I’ve been formulating a “plan” for! Some of the tiles were made with my MKM Pottery Tools … while others were made with my own handmade clay stamps.

Working on something a little newer & a little bigger… playing with textures again! Looking forward & hoping that these are done & fired before “4×4 : FOUR MAKERS”… my next gallery art show the first weekend of March in Evanston, Illinois. More details to come… and more photos if this “plan” works out?!

While setting up for this weekend’s SECOND HOLIDAY HOME SHOW, I’ve got some new things to put out!! Not only do I have two kilns currently firing & cooling… but I’m restocking the shelves so there’s plenty of holiday gift ideas for everyone!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN… with one of the largest displays of The Ghouls Collection! So much fun to see them all lined up in front of a custom tile surround that I made for my sister & family!
