the outside of my studio door is painted with chalkboard paint (one of man’s finest inventions) and i like to write messages + quotes for the passerbyers. todays quote is from rainer maria rilke . . .
“we are not numbering or counting, but ripening like a tree,”
several years ago, i cut into a block of clay and exposed this perfect tiny air bubble heart. naturally, i glazed it and now it sits upon my shelf. it has since become one of my most prized possessions of all time. here’s to finding love where you least expect it.
EVERY month should be all about love. that’s why i sometimes have a hard time with VALENTINE’S DAY. february 14th can feel like such a hallmarky effortful celebration. it doesn’t have to be and to me it shouldn’t be. i think every day should be all about love . . . the world might be a better place if everyone agreed on that.
to mark it in stone (or rather, clay) i’ve put a few new heartfelt reminders in my shop.
have you ever smelled daphne ? it is the most fresh lemony scent ever . . . my studio has never smelled so good.
i am so honored to announce ANN VAN HOEY‘s workshop at my studio.

my studio shop table is looking very fall these days.
thank you to everyone who came to my open studio the past 2 weekends. it was so great to see so many familiar faces, to meet so many new faces, and to finally meet the faces i have only known virtually. and i also have to say that my studio guests have the most AMAZING handwriting ! W O W .
