Are these things interchangable? Oh Yes! I do think so. I have so many plans for this new home of ours. Good solid plans complete with auto cad drawings! A long time friend of mine is a professional inventor. He is now living in this sleepy little town once again. He left over a decade ago and has come back to be married soon. He has been so very helpful in helping me build my dream with this new

So this idea of getting back on the computer has my forearms throbbing. Enough to wake my up at night. As a Potter this sometimes happens no matter what. I rub hot spicy salves in. I bind them every so often. I have even used chop sticks and socks with staples and tape. Once we rigged up a great splint from a couple of Styrofoam meat trays. (we bought dolomades rather often in them. Not meat! ;)

This week started off fast and solid. I have begun Studio Days once again. Once again it is on a Monday. I love Mondays. Always have loved Mondays. For the last few years Studio Mondays have made the rather ordinarily-full-of-verve-and-gusto-great-Monday even better! Today was the first day of Art Classes for small children. Gosh that went over really well by all accounts. Eli Love Love Loved

I did up a very do-able list. Yup Yup. I did indeed. We went to town. Going  to town feels like a really big effort now since I love our New-Forever-Home. No success getting parts for the camera from the one store went to. So what! lol I did The List, managed to bring all the things I needed for the camera fellow to help me and get out the door with a spare cloth diaper. Sometimes these things

I have not been blogging lately. I have lost our camera cord in the move. I also made a promise to myself and Eli that I will not be on the computer for mere than an hour each day. So, no bloggin'! Tomorrow I will buy a cord and I will spend time blogging. Why? I find this blog helps me focus on Art. This is a good thing, No? Yup Yup focus on Art. It has been a while and the time has come.

As some know One must garden.Yup Yup. It is the time of year to ignore every single inspiration and instinct. One must endure late nights of twitching and mental writhing. Simply put, One must not plant seeds into the garden yet.*sigh* So, I have taken to sorting and fondling my seeds. I have taken to sketching and plotting digging and sitting in the Garden.

I really love finding people's strengths and building upon them. It is a well known fact in this little town I am not a big believer that "this is what you should be learning because you are 14 and therefore it is what I will talk about and test you on whether you are interested or not" Nope Nope. None of that for me! :D I feel so very very honoured to have been asked to teach for the school

Usually I fill the sink up with all the fruits from the shopping trip and wash them in a big group swim.The grapes have always been an issue.They roll around under the melon or the apples and get themselves squished.I came up with a great idea today for washing the grapes with the fruit wash stuff I like to use.I plucked them and put the works in a pickle jar.It used way less soap than the sink

The cover of this book did it for me well enough.Yup Yup. Just the cover. I did not even go in....Homemade Pesto was ready and waiting.Homemade Bread Dough, easy peasy enough to make.Homemade Zuchin-nee-nee. Oh me oh my do I have some of that stuff.There is a saying that if you need to buy zucchini you have no friends.Well have I got friends!A bit of fresh hard parm... and away we go!

I got an early start on painting some of the Market Satchels for the brand new little green grocer in Tofino.It is called Green Soul Organics.Morgan is smart and sweet.Eli and I ate the best most tasty bananas from her shop.She had fine and good high quality everything.Including sundried tomatoes that we chewed up on the ride home.When I get "arting" so to speak the house goes to wrack and ruin

There are those days that I look at the clock four or five times in an hour and wish for the day to wind down.

I torture my brushes I leave them soaking in water for weeks on end. I grind them into the dregs of past at the bottom of the glaze bucket. I leave them outside for seasons on end. Often they don't survive. Many do. The ones that do seem to be the "natural materials" ones. Today I went hunting for new brushes online. I am fairly certain I know where I will be buying some now.

Well, here is the lowdown on this last weekend.It was the most money I have made at a venue in Port Alberni yet.I have been doing the Day With for a lot of years, somewhere around 14 years.Even thought the numbers of people visiting the Studio were down!So, why?Well, I had bigger pieces this time.I had nearly a store full of different things that I had made. Satchels and the likes.But, I think

"Sometimes One Needs To Just Get On With It" is written around the rim of the biggest bowl I glazed this time 'round. Yup Yup!This Lovely has a story about a woman who seems comfortable on the edge. Balanced by a strong body and cookies. Yes, I said cookies...can't see it in the picture but she has a rather large and satisfying stack of cookies on her inside hand's side. These bigger than they

Goodness I love Mondays.Today Jessi recycled a bucket of clay for me.I am so greatfull for her help with that job especially.I simply cannot do it.If Eli needs me I am up to my elbows in much and it takes ages to sponge off enough to snuggle him again.So thank you , again Jessie.And I won't make you eat butter scotch ice cream from a bucket again.:)This video was done about two hours before

Here we are getting ready for the water colour class I am teaching for our local school district's home learners. I have and will continue to decline work that will leave Eli in the company of someone other than very immediate family.I am happy to have a life that our son can be fully involved in.His being in my life is imperative to his sense of well being.One of the books I read recently talks

You'd think it has been this way for years not just days!I would like to think soon I will be posting some pictures of that lovely orange glow of the kiln firing.The shelves are just about full...nearly...almost...Then you will see the posh speckled blue on my fav clay.that Klamath Brown, chocolate.

A friend of mine has opened a tea house in town.It is up on a hill.7th Avenue Tea HouseShe asked me to make some of my offering bowls to sell.This is one of the sculptures that will be nestled in a bowl.I regret I don't have pictures of the one big one in The Cedar Corners Gallery in Tofino.That one was in that window of "no camera".So if you are local.

Ever so slowly my shelves are filling up.Jessi is getting the hang of making the Acrobatic Ginger Bread Guys.Today I realized why my work is all over the map in the consistency department.It's 'cause I never really know if Eli will do this for long or short...I end up kinda pushing ahead, towards an undisclosed "amount target" instead of being solid and just doing what ever is on the wheel.Do you

At the end of this day a bust of energy over took me.Out came the Hand-Whirr-Whirr.Some one reading this blog will recognize this one!(Ericka are you there?)About five years ago I needed a new one in the Studio because mine had smoked terribly while stirring up a bucket of glaze.This Hand-Whirr-Whirr has lasted the longest out of the three that I have gone through in the last 15 years.What a

This is what my Horoscope said today. Life is looking better and better for you, but there are still a few loose ends that must be tied up before you can get on with the next phase of your life.The rate of change will continue to increase for you over the weeks ahead, but now you must concentrate on the present moment and not on the future.Be ruthless if necessary, but don't let unfinished tasks

How to make a Sweater-Pillow.First off have a friend gift you a very big interesting-in-a-tacky-sort-of-way sweater.Second, waffle about turning it into a skirt.After deciding an elastic waist band sounds like too much work at the moment cut the arms off of the sweater.Next, try the now armless sweater on starting with your your head poking out of the "proper" place and then squidge it down your

There have been times in my life I have worried about not feeling the urge to go and make Art.There have been times in my life a year or two has passed and I have not made a bowl.There have been times in my life I have lost sleep over the good ideas pouring into my minds eye.Pouring.I have taken to having paper close to all the places I sit or lay.

Eli and I have been resting a lot this last week and a half.He has beenvery sleepyandvery awakeandvery hungryandvery uncomfortable.Alas, his gums are making themselves known .It has inspired him to clumsily grab things like his shirtfronts and stuffed vegetables to haul them swiftly up to his mouth rather like a starving man.We walk a lot.We sit and nurse for the rest of the time.Not unlike when

The Little Acrobatic Ginger Bread Men were "cooked" to perfection.Now I had to wait to touch them.They were still too hot.So upstairs I tromped with Eli in his Sling(what's new there huh?:)I had started some dough the evening before.Sourdough starter needs that extra bit of time to be happy it seems.I chopped up some Breaban apples...tart and crisp.I sparked up the trusty old cauldronandmade
