Can You Help A Small Business and Dear Friend?

If you enjoy browsing my Etsy shop or blog you can partly thank Betty Wilson owner of The Craft Gallery in West Palm Beach. Betty has been doing loads of firings for me. I also buy my clay, glazes and everything else ceramic from her. If you need something and can't find it; ask Betty.

Dirty rotten robbers broke into her gallery and stole everything from her computer to cash register. They broke windows and really trashed the place in their hunt for anything of value.

If you would like to help a small business owner get back on her feet please visit Go Fund Me to donate even a small amount. I love you Betty.

Freestanding Figurative Sculptures

You've been asking, and I've been listening. Free standing figures that also hang on the wall. These figures are about 10 inches high. The bases are not the final ones, but I was dying to photograph the figures so I used what I had handy. A trip to the Home Depot and the chop saw are on the books for tomorrow.

New Studio Piece: Hamilton Type Cabinet

It's a good thing yesterday was Mother's Day because I have a new baby in the studio: A Hamilton Type cabinet. We drove to Orlando to get her and for the past week I have been filling it with all of the type I've had stashed in cigar boxes. I love it in the studio, it's inspiring me to organize.

Another Furry Guest watching me work

Do you ever get the feeling you're being watched? We were working outside yesterday and I looked over to my neighbor's house. I saw this little face poking out of their attic vent, then a paw, then a very hot and sleepy looking raccoon pops out.

I'd say he was roasting up there in the Florida heat and came out for a bit of fresh air.

 I'll take squirrels on my fence over this guy in my attic any day!

My Peanut Pal

I know they've got a bad reputation as bullies, but I enjoy supplying peanuts to this little gray squirrel just outside my studio window.

 and off she goes. The best part is when she stares in the window at me wanting more.

Big Cartel Shop

It's probably not a total necessity but I opened up a Big Cartel shop. What the heck, More exposure isn't such a bad thing. Big Cartel  has 3 pricing options. For now I am going to free route.
