Dino mug!
There is a fossil teapot at the Nelson Atkins that this was partially inspired by though they look nothing alike 😂 the checkered teapot companion to the fossil one is probably one of my favorite pieces of all time.

It’s colder and rainy, true fall weather here now so I think I’m going to lean into the off the gun finish I was already trying to embrace with the two guitars I’m working on. There is a strong possibility especially with this one that I will give it to a friend.
An acoustic guitar top, painted burgundy mist metallic. A kind of pink purple color. The rosette is left clear coated maple and wenge The quarter sawn wenge back of the guitar trimmed with flamed maple. The grain of the guitar can clearly be seen in the satin finish of the guitar

Just to reiterate:

MOTHS

An emerald green translucent glazed mug, the mug has a bas relief of a Luna moth, the glaze is thin on high spots and thick in low spots creating further depth A light spearmint green glaze mug with a Luna moth bas relief on it. The glaze is thin on the high spots of the bas relief showing the brown clay beneath the glaze. This effect highlights the details of the moth imitating its markings and fuzzy body and feelers

Sick of me yet? Don’t worry I’ll crash from relentlessly posting for the holiday lead up and you’ll never see me for like a whole week.

Luna moth mugs though! Look moths! MOTHS.

The beetle at the center of the universe.
A detail shot of a ceramic tile. The tile has a geometric swirl sunburst looking embossed background with a bas relief of a rhinoceros beetle. The emerald green glaze pools in Lower areas and runs off of higher areas creating depth of color in the glaze. The glaze is also crazed or crackled with small fractures in the surface

I really don’t mind the actually finishing part of shooting finish. If I had a space or set up for fume evacuation and dust mitigation I honestly would relish getting to do it more. But it’s always a slog and I never want to do it. I always keep tweezers handy now because bugs just love nitro…

Thagomizer included!

First Dino mugs out of the kiln. I was worried about these having too much detail but doing the bones on the like rock made it very possible. Quite happy with these and looking forward to exploring it a bit more.

Burgundy mist looking pretty rad. Spent some time scraping some overspray and places where the paint got under tape. Hoping to put some clear coats on this over the weekend.

New set of bookend planters from the kiln. Kind of annoyed that I forgot to put my typical masked off band around the rim. Oh well

Monstera Mugs!!!
When I was prepping for the workshop down at Neosho Community College last month I knew whatever sprigs I set up for them I wanted to be able to add more detail for me later.
This was one of the ones I made and I think it turned out pretty rad!
