Progress in studio yesterday! 2 days worth of wheel threw pieces, trimmed, handled, carved. 2 Hazel's Cafe Mugs: handled, ink transfered, slip-trailed logos, did touch up on them need to do little more today. 1 standing spoon rest carved. Older pieces from wet box trimmed and handled. Everything moved to drybox, except: 4 cylinders, 2 Hazel's Cafe Mugs, they all need more work done to them. Alot more orders to finish and inventory to start. #homepotterystudio #thardypotteryandart #womxn #uspigment (at Oregon, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRg7R7kD-l0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Flipped 3 pieces from earlier to dry, will need to be trimmed and then handled. Tested back out bat inserts my friend @cooper.sally.jane let me have, I think I'm getting how to use it without taring up my pinky. So threw 5 more pieces on those, need them to stiffen a bit, then remove them from bats and flip them over on drywall. Those 5 will need to be trimmed and handled. #mugs #tumbler #uspigment #lagunaclaycompany #thardypotteryandart #throwing #batsystem #woodbats #bmix5 #practicemakesprogress (at Oregon, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPcFLgdDqh5/?utm_medium=tumblr

83 lbs of clay, 58 balls of clay, cut, weighted, wedged, wrapped in 2 hours, great workout. 24 balls of 1 pounders 18 balls of 1.5 pounders 16 balls of 2 pounders *All fresh clay no reclaim, hoping this will help with the weak spots I keep getting and clasping... Plus should be clean of parts of sponge, metal or any other random debris I have found in my reclaim. *So next time in studio will be more practice to see if I have solved issues. Though every day in studio / running my own business is a learning experience and practice. Goodnight all. #wedgingclay #uspigment #thardypotteryandart #bmix5 #bmix #Lagunaclay #lagunaclaycompany #lagunaclaycompanydistributor #pottery #homestudio #homestudiolife #workoutinstudio (at Oregon, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPZxKoHDaIg/?utm_medium=tumblr

L I T T L E. R I V E R Little River is made using a pigment gifted to me by @foundandground who was gifted it by @heidilynnheidilynn sourced from Little River in South Carolina. This little pigment has been on quite a journey already and I’m thankful I’m part of its journey. Since I started my pigment exploration a few years ago I’ve not only made many new discoveries about colour and the earth, but I’ve also made so many wonderful friends who share the same passion as me to create from nature and respect the earth that provides such beauty. If you’d like this painting to be part of your journey, it has just made its way back from the framers and is ready for its new home. It’s a beautiful vibrant yellow ochre all the way from the US! It’d make a wonderful Christmas present. All artwork is available to purchase until Thursday 10th December so if you’ve got your eye on anything, please let me know prior to this! £200 +P&P 30cm x 30cm framed with UV art glass Please DM me to purchase or for further details. #littleriver #naturalpigment #pigmentjourney #londonartist #uspigment #southcarolina #artforsale #framedartwork #artforyourhome #christmasgifts #thoughtfulgifts (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIczAJuHNtD/?igshid=ctkzhswehque
