I paint with oils, print with ink, sculpt with clay, play my violin, grow animals and vegetables, travel, dream and theorize. And then I write all about it here.

It was a very rainy 60 hour firing, but the kiln did wonderful! We open on Wednesday the 3oth and I can hardly wait to see all 250 new pieces...

Next firing coming up!


We will be loading the kiln in a short time, starting the 16th. Warm up 19 and 2oth. Fire 21 through 23rd- long days are ahead! I have made more clay work than I ever have before. Experimenting with lots of throwing and then altering into a small sculpture. So, we shall see what the kiln has to say about that!
