Okay sure, maybe there were some trees, fences, silhouettes, a lighthouse and a sunrise too! Another beautiful start to the day.

Get out and enjoy it today!!!

So after playing hooky all day on my bike while it was gorgeous outside…
I finally made it into the studio for a very productive evening!
Throwing LOTS of parts & pieces for another big project!

Looks like the remodeling at Lillstreet is coming along nicely… gradually preparing to open again to the public for classes starting in July! Hopefully. Of course we all know a LOT can happen between now & then… but they’re trying their best to make it safer & healthier for everyone when classes start again!

And look at all those new shelves waiting to be filled with pots!!!

Looks like the perfect spot for a quick rest by the lake. Blue skies, nice breeze… and another gorgeous day to play hooky outside on my bike!!!

But then again, I kinda think EVERY day is good for playing hooky!!!

Another day of packing & shipping out some pots…
before going outside to play!!!

With all of the protests & riots over the past weeks, infamous street artist Banksy has expressed his thoughts through images & words on his Instagram feed. Very thoughtful and well stated… as I would have expected.

For those who are not aware of Banksy and his work… Banksy is an anonymous England-based street artist, vandal, political activist, and film director, active since the 1990s. His satirical street art and subversive epigrams combine dark humor with graffiti executed in a distinctive stenciling technique.

He’s kind of a big deal.

Four magical letters… possibly the best four letters of any firing process!
CPLT = COMPLETE.

Always a big sigh of relief to see that something crazy didn’t happen along the way. We’re one step closer…

Another warm morning on my bike pedaling north to enjoy the sunrise. Nice & warm with a wonderful breeze. Rumors of rain moving in today… but trying to squeeze it in before it gets here!

The flock has flown into the kiln… ready for a bisque firing.
And let me just say, I’ll feel a LOT better when these have all successfully “survived” the bisque firing. So much safer when they are “solid” and not so fragile as when they’re just dried clay!

Another Monday. Another Mugshot!!!
