A Painting A Day

Good morning, I am taking a wonderful pastel workshop here in the Adirondacks with Ray Hassard, and boy! Am I out of practice! Because drawing and painting are so important to all other art, I am committing to doing a painting a day! Starting today! Will post pics every day!

Some recent pottery!

Two New Pieces of Pottery

Just got these two from class. The bigger one (about 8 inches tall) was done with much help from my teacher, Chris Walton! Throwing taller is hard for me. I find it much easier to make bowls!!

Just finished trimming!

I just finished trimming some bowls for my students and for sale in our shop, Seven Sisters Gift Shop, in North Creek, NY. They are going to a woman to be used as ice cream bowls!! I will be glazing them with hobbit and blue snowflake.

This is a handbuilt Toad House, made with high-fire clay, bisqued, and raku'd. I was thrilled with how it came out!!

Gorgeous Ceramic Platter, Hand Built

This platter was hand built and fired to Cone 6, which means that it is dishwasher and microwave safe!! I put an impression of a pine branch on it, and it came out very organically. It would be great for snacks or chips, or to sit on your table and collect things! 17 inches long.

The "Frog Mahal" Toad House!!

Good morning,
The "Frog Mahal" is ready to go to its new garden!! Made from high fire clay and then Raku'd, this will give some lucky froggie a place to hide from the hot sun and predators. For sale on our website:
