With an ever-changing morning glow contrasted by The Centennial Wheel.

Creepy Clowns… the newest member of THE GHOULS COLLECTION. It’s a Limited Edition of forty… and when they’re gone, they’re gone!!! They’re all very similar, but each on has a different color combo & personality. It will be great fun to see how people analyze & pick their favorite this weekend at ART IN THE BARN!

The newest addition to THE GHOULS COLLECTION…
limited edition Creepy Clowns!!!

Coming out of the kiln… not so creepy, I think they’re pretty cute.
Vibrant colors with a smirky-toothy grin… half with hats, and half with flowers “squirting” water!! All coming out for ART IN THE BARN this weekend in Barrington!

Handmade pottery always makes the flowers look happier!!!

Sure, I coulda done this over the past week or so… but it’s always “so much more fun” to be prepping, pricing & packing pots on the day when I should out in Barrington setting up already!!! Well, at least this large batch of new hybrid mugs will be coming with me this weekend to ART IN THE BARN!!!

And not a moment too soon… #IYKYK

Sometimes things just line up… being at the right place at the right time. And what a difference a day makes. Yesterday was overly clouded… and today was totally cloud-free! Clear skies & clear sailing… apparently right in front of the sunrise.

It’s my BIGGEST art fair of the summer… well, technically kicking-off Fall. I will once again be in the Lower Barn with my double booth in E4 & E6. And I’ve been working long hours in the studio getting everything ready for this one. Not only will I have all of the mugs & bowls… but also some special “wall art pieces” that don’t get to travel to art fairs in my tent. As well as all of the newest Limited Edition “Creepy Clowns” for THE GHOULS COLLECTION… and pumpkins & other Halloween decor fun! Be sure to stop by this weekend… and bring some friends!!! It looks like it’s going to be a WONDERFUL weekend out in Barrington!!!

Handmade pottery always makes the flowers look better!!!

Another beautiful bouquet of farm-fresh dahlias from Vangie’s Farm… at yesterday’s Farmer’s Market in Andersonville. Such amazing colors & textures. I do love growing some dahlias in my garden… but they never get quite as amazing as these ones!!! Good thing I have plenty of vases ready to go whenever some new flowers come home with me!!!
