I take a lot of pictures with my phone when I'm out in the studio. I usually upload them to my Instagram. Recently I realized that not everyone is one Instagram and that you may like to see some of these pictures too...so I will try to do a post at least once a week where you get to see pottery that may be "in the works" so to speak....

Mugs, mugs, and more mugs....

I'm taking a little break from throwing. I've been commissioned to make 50 mugs for a wedding in August. In between studying, taking tests, gardening and taking a little trail ride now and then, I've been keeping busy at the wheel. =)

Last night I received another commission for a new painting. Also needed in August. Doesn't look like I'll be getting much of a break between semesters. That's okay though. Work isn't work if you enjoy what your doing!
