After 20 years, I’ve decided to close my pottery. I’ll still be doing art at home, but I’m veering away from heavy pottery to things that are easier to carry. All my glazes are on sale, along with an Evenheat kiln. Message me if you’re interested.

Various masks I made while recuperating from surgery. The one with the beads hanging down across the mouth is made from a silver plate tray. If you look carefully, you an see a floral motif etched into the tray. I've used copper foil to create texture and pattern on the base mask. Alcohol ink gives vibrant color around one eye and on the teardrop shapes applied to the points making a sort of crown. This is a feminine piece, recalling the legendary warrior Boudica, with its Celtic design. The teardrop shapes in the points of the crown are made from copper foil, then tinted with alcohol ink. Labradorite cabochons wrapped in copper foil decorate the teardrops. Peacock and exotic pheasant feathers create the ruff.

I am so glad the (producers/writers/directors) of Bridgerton decided to keep Penelope zaftig. In the books, she went off and got skinny, and Colin notices her. I’m glad they kept the actress the size she began with. Nicola Coughlin is beautiful as she is. And she did a n**e scene! And she does indeed have perfect breasts.

😮 Full moon looks like a giant eye as it passes behind a rock arch in Utah!

An incredible photograph of a full moon passing through a rock arch at Arches National Park makes the final picture look like a giant eye.

A great way to celebrate the Earth's moon is to hike and explore America's public lands during a full moon - the next one is on July 3rd.
