I’ve been doing a lot of miniature paintings in gouache and watercolor lately. I really liked working in this one and I’m considering doing a larger more detailed version 😊

It’s been a really long time since I’ve reached for my oil pastels. I wanted to see how they would go down on some sanded paper and I really enjoyed the result. I really like how this painting looks from far away, so I tried taking a phot

Finished the painting I’ve been working on the past week or so. For the first time I thought to document some of the stages of the painting from thumbnail to finish. I’ll have to try to remember to do that more often! Now I just need a be

While setting up for a new painting, I found this one underneath my foam core. I had set it aside, almost done and had forgotten about it. It took me all of 10 minutes to finish it up and I’m ready pleased with how it came out. Really shows the

I’ve been really loving painting with gouache lately. I have a few paintings I’ve done, mostly landscapes and clouds.
I want to show more of them, but I can’t seem to take photos that accurately shows the colors. Anyone have a good

Merry Christmas everyone!!! Here’s a look at our tree with all the handmade ornaments.
Hope everyone’s holidays have been great and restful. Looking forward to wonderful new things in the new year 😊

Two little birds in my tree 😊 I made a bunch of crystalline ornaments and I love how they came out! Not to mention no runny glazes. Look out for more ornaments this week!

Another special new pot from the last firing. I did a whole bunch of tests this year to get this crystalline glaze to work right. I’m really happy how it pools on the inside but might have to work on how it flows on the outside.
I have a few m

My first attempt at gouache painting. It’s a little mini painting (3.5 inches by 3 inches) but I’m happy with it. I tried out the Caran d’Ache gouache pan/dried cake set, since it feels like a stepping stone from watercolor, but I&r

A bunch of new things coming up that I’m excited to share! First up is my favorite glaze combo on yarn bowls. Really happy how it came out! Find them in the link in the bio 😄

Got a bunch of mugs out of the kiln! Very happy with this batch of blue mugs. Just listed them on my Etsy, for anyone who’s interested. Link in bio.

Some new buttons I made for my aunt’s Fall Fair fundraiser. These were a special request from her since we wanted to represent my cousins, who are autistic, and raise some money for autism awareness. I love how they came out and I hope her neig

Fresh out of the kiln! I’m loving this color combination on the speckled clay. The only downside is that where the glaze is light on the bottom it has a textured feel to it. I plan on retrying a new set with more glaze on the bottom as well as

Found while apple picking. This spooky little guy was waiting out for us in the field! We left him on the tree for other people to discover 🍎🎃

Throwback to one of my favorite pieces I’ve ever made. We try to pit fire once a year up at Kevin’s family farm and this guy was in a batch of pottery that came out as duds. We had been so disappointed, so I boxed the work up and put them

My favorite day of the year!!! The pastel society’s material fair. It was great to say hi to some friends and look at beautiful paintings. I always try not to go overboard buying new pastels but it’s hard to say no to all those little bea

Playing around with watercolors using them like I do with soft pastels. Really loving being able to paint loosely and how it layers on hot press paper. #watercolor #instaart #danielsmithwatercolors #picoftheday #landscapepainting #cloudpainting #inst

Fresh out of the kiln! The glaze came out a little more matte but I think I like it 😊 #ceramicshop #succulentsofinstagram #succulentplanter #handmadepottery #potterylove #picoftheday #ceramicsart #shopsmall #shopsustainable
