Getting Inspired in England

I thought I'd share a few images from our trip to London. A raven in the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, Westminster (Big Ben), and a thistle in Regent's Park.

4th Annual Workhouse Exibition

Good news, 2 of my pieces were accepted into the 4th Annual Workhouse Ceramic Exhibition in Lorton, Virginia. Even more breath taking is how many years I have adored and held great respect for the juror of the show; Richard Notkin. If you don't know his name do yourself a favor, click the link. His work is brilliant.  I've been a fan since way back as an undergrad when Chris Federighi introduced me to his work. Very humbled, honored and thankful.

July Calendar Page

Hello! I didn't forget the calendar page. I've moved house and studio and trying to unpack and weed things out and at the same time fractured ribs tearing out carpet. Who knew how painful a sneeze could be? It's been interesting. Hope you enjoy the calendar. We're off to London soon so it seemed perfect.

June Calendar Page

Can you believe we're 6 months into the year? Me neither. Here is the June calendar page ready for download. Personal use only please.

Art Studio Don't

If you read my guest posts on CreateMixedMedia.com you'll see in June's entry I discuss living in my studio. And I don't mean "I worked really hard on those pieces, I've been just about living in my studio". Noooo!! The pictures say it all. Before and After.

We needed a rewire and my studio has become home. We're living in my studio. We'll be moving into a condo not a moment too soon.Watch Etsy for a moving sale.

You're a Real Artist

This month I wrote a guest blog post for CreateMixedMedia.com about what makes a "real artist". With it I included a certificate for you to print and hang on your wall to remind yourself that no matter what that naughty inner voice tells you; you are a real artist. Enjoy. And if you print it and hang it up, send me a picture.

This image should hold up when you print. Any issues send me a message and I'll send you one.
