Painting Rocks With Louie

There is a sweet video up on Creativebug of me painting rocks  along with my dog Louie being cute.  

If you ask me, Louie steals the show!

 

This is how you paint rocks with a dog in your lap

Also, Creativebug will be adding my  new "Printed Ceramics" online workshop on January 24th. If you haven't already seen my Mishima, Clay Spoons and Driftwood Mobile workshops, sign up to watch them here. 

If you'd like purchase my painted stones (and clay scoops) you can do so here at my new rock shop, Stone & Clay. Sorry, the dog is not for sale. ; )

The Clayer: Update

Hello and Happy New Year!

I've been receiving many emails asking me when and if I will be re-launching my online e-course The Clayer: Surfacing? The answer is, yes! I had initially intended to have it start up again in January (if you go to the page, it says as much.) As often happens, my good intentions have been a bit delayed as I am still finishing up some projects in the studio from 2012 and haven't had much time to sit at my desk and get all the details together to re-launch it. It's almost there, so please hang in there. I will post it here, as well as on facebook and twitter when the registration opens. Also, if you haven't already, please sign up for my newsletter (here on the blog, in the sidebar) to be notified when it will begin.

 Thank you SO MUCH for your interest in the class, I can't wait to run it again and meet YOU!

Terrain & Heath Ceramics

This autumn I've been very busy working on two great projects with some great clients,

 Terrain and Heath Ceramics.

Earlier this fall I created this collection for Terrain. It was fun to work within a theme, indigo and copper and really exciting to create my large one of a kind works for a change. So often I am asked to make my smaller items, which is okay, but my larger one of kind pieces has always been where my heart is at. 

The pieces from this collection are available for purchase, online, here.

Canteen Vases

Currently I am working long hours filling a very large order for Heath Ceramics. I've been creating seasonal vase collections for them for the past four years, which is such a delight!

Pin Vases

My work for them is not available online but if you are in San Francisco, you can find my work at their Ferry Building location or in their Sausalito Store.

My Creativebug Workshops Are Here!

 

Check out my latest workshop collaboration with Creativebug! I had so much fun filming these workshops for them even though they made me say my lines over and over again until I got it right. 

The Clayer: Online Ecourse

I've been mulling this idea over for a while now and am SO excited to be finally announcing that it has become a reality! I will be teaching an online e-course, The Clayer: Part One: Surfacing, form February 27th to April 8th.  This is an intermediate course and will cover surface applications on ceramics as well as a couple of basic handbuilding techniques.

I hope to meet you in class!
