I’m super busy working up lots of pots for the last soda kiln fire at Yourist Studio Gallery. Some of these will be appearing at our community festival and at Gutman Gallery this August.
Love this shot of The Podscape - now in the Scapes show at Gutman Gallery. #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #gallery #annarborartist #michiganartist
Poppy Seedpod pieces are poppin’ out of the soda kiln! All ready for Westside Arthop. #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #seedpod #vases #dishes #pods
I’m getting pretty excited about how these Stampy Spring pieces are turning out. It’s been fun carving the stamps, but it’s more fun to create all the different patterns. Look for these playfully patterned pieces at this year’s Westside Art Hop on June 7-8. #ceramics #handcarved #stamps #pattern
Lots of fun Seedpod inspired work is sprouting up in the studio. #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #seedpod #functional #sculptural #michiganartist #sodakilnbound
WIP for upcoming summer shows. Looking forward to seeing the soda kissing these. #ceramics #seedpods #handbuiltceramics #summer #shows #sculptural #functional #sodakiln #hothothot
This Seedpod series is a labor of love. From forming the pod, to adding the petals and all the textures for the soda to catch, it’s a lot! I just love how they can turn out. You can see this yummy piece at Westside Arthop in June. #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #sodakissed #seedpod #annarborartisr
I’m pretty excited about how these sweet soda kissed Seedpod capped trinket dishes turned out! They are perfect for something really special or dear to your heart. They are super fun to make and I will have a few at this year’s @westsidearthop in June! #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #sodakissed
It’s a Podscape! I love how how these different shapes and soda kissed colors play with each other to create this otherworldly landscape! Look for these pretty pods at this years @westsidearthop. I’ll have a whole planet of them! #ceramics #westsidearthop #sodakiln #podscape #michiganartist
Good things come in three’s, at least for this table setting with these sweet, Spring Sgraffito vases. I love how they work as a group and highlight the flowers of the season. I’ll have a few of these and some other pieces at Westside Arthop on June 7-8. #handbuiltceramics #sgraffito #spring
Thank you!
It’s a stampy spring! These fun floral pieces are heading to the soda kiln next week. #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #stampy #soda #spring
I too have carved a few stamps throughout the last few years, but never something like these which are designed to mix and match. It’s been super fun to play with the patterns. But I must admit this idea was inspired by the wonderful Sarah Pike. These will be going into the soda kiln next.
Stampy Spring Cylinder vases! These stamps are too much fun to play with! #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #stampy #spring #flowers
Fun with forms and shadows. #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #seedpods #vases #secrets #annarborartist #michiganartist #sodakiln
Playful, versatile pods.
The pod parade. There are so many potential, functional uses for these playful pots…salt cellar, air plant holder, tea light holder, a place to put small jewelry. #ceramcs #handbuiltceramics #pod #parade #versatile #annarborartist #michiganartist
Here is one of my favorite pieces from the last soda fire. A Seedpod cup! It’s perfect for tea, coffee or soup! I really want to try to make a teapot to go with it! #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #sodakiln #seedpod #sodaseason #annarborartist #michiganartist
We gotta talk fonts sometime! I love this and so perfect for a library setting.
Soda season is the BEST season! #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #sodakiln #soda #season
Loving how these stamps are playing on these bowl forms. Inside…and out. #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #bowls #handcarved #stamps #spring #flowers
All the pieces are packed and ready to go to the Glen Arbor Arts Center for its Walking exhibit. Safe travels to them all! #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #glenarborartscenter #walking #exhibit #annarborartist
Love this!
Testing, testing 1-23. Yep, 23 tests are headed to the soda kin for next weeks firing. I’m excited to see how it all turns out! #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #sodakiln #testing #exploringthepossibilities #sodaseason
Thanks! I hope to play around with them a lot!
Having some fun with the stamps I made. Inspired by @sarahpikepottery.bsky.social. Adding some slip details then they are headed to the soda kiln! #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #sodakiln #stamps #spring
Invasion of the seedpods in the studio! #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #seedpod #testingtesting #sodaseasonishere
Love this. It reminds me of all the font explorations I did back in my graphic design days!
It’s gonna be a stampy Spring in the studio! I had some fun carving these and look forward to trying them out. There are so many options! #ceramics #handbuiltceramics #stamps #spring #timetoplay
