Lots of shamrocks popping up in the studio today! Well on my way to this year’s batch of Shamrock Mugs!!! Trimming & handles coming soon…
With just about a month until St. Patrick’s Day…
gotta get stamping if we’re going to have mugs in time!!!
Yummy start to the day… a fresh bakery scone on a Cory McCrory plate!!!
So bright, so fun, so Sunday!!!
Hard to believe we’re just two weeks away from “4×4 : FOUR MAKERS”… the last Friday of February & two days into March! I’ve got a lot to finish, glaze & fire before then. Luckily it’s dry & warm in the studio today… good reason to stay inside to keep working!!!
From up in the frozen tundra of Stevens Point, Wisconsin… looks like Matthew braved the elements to get some yummy treats. Turns out he found Chinese OREOs… surprisingly thin, but I’m sure tasty nonetheless! Thanks for sharing your OREO adventure… looks yummy with a glass of milk!!!
More than ten pieces thrown before 10:00am.
Making more mugs… but this time with a holiday theme to come!
Parts & pieces coming together… working on some new “collaboration” pieces for “4×4 : FOUR MAKERS.” Kinda loving how the underglazes are highlighting the textures made with some of my MKM Pottery Tools handrollers! Time to start glazing pretty soon! Just two more weeks until “4×4”!!!
Snow Day fun making SNOW DUCKS!!! My friend Tiffany brought her “snow duck maker” to work today… so we had to get outside to play for awhile. Making ducks obviously!!!
