Doing some black inlay on carved porcelain.

My new Peony Collection gathered together for a family portrait.

First Friday opening tonight.

Stacking up the bowls.

Some before and after.

Bad handle. To the shard pile with you.

Might as well face it, I’m addicted to mugs.

Peony vase with fresh plum blossoms. Peonies are hard to draw, so I just doodled it on paper, then did it again on this vase. 

Dusting the shelves, mopping the floors, and hiding the half-done projects. My open studio is this weekend-- be there.

Some handmade crepe paper succulents to go with my new ceramic container.

Pretty happy with this batch of mugs.

Sometimes work looks just as good in progress as it does when it's finished.

I got a little obsessed with finishing work this week. Phone calls and emails were generally ignored, meals were skipped and some personal hygiene slipped as well.

This letter could have been written by me, and so too the response.

A small collection of extra-large vases now showing exclusively at the Jennifer Perlmutter Gallery in Lafayette, California. Showing through early November.
