I saw this flower for the first time last week at the Botanic Gardens and it was spectacular! The bees loved it and they turn upside down to drink the nectar from the underside of the petals.

Attempt 6. Right shape, size, clay and color with a dreaded unexpected drip. I’ll create one more and adjust the glaze. Wheel thrown, Kentucky Mudworks Sheltowee clay.

First attempt at pickle making and it was far easier than I imagined. They turned out surprisingly crisp and tasty.

I selected some end of season plants from my yard to make an autumn wreath.

Those are beautiful pieces! Making something similar is on my bucket list.

Spending less time in the garden as autumn begins to settle in has me inspired to start producing pottery for the holidays. This 14” shallow bowl may become a platter. Wheel thrown, Kentucky Mudworks Sheltowee clay.
