made in france.
you can take the girl out of her production studio,
but you can’t take the production studio out of the girl.
click here to see most of what i made in france (from start to finish in 3 weeks). i also made a series of 20 cups, 2 of which broke and the rest sold + a bunch of clunkers that were not photo-worthy. it is so shocking how much you can accomplish when you have nothing else to worry about and you are doing what you truly love to do. i HIGHLY recommend a residency at A.I.R. VALLAURIS. it was a life changing experience.

the colours in the town of vallauris are so beautiful to me. very muddy and very bright at the same time. i’ll paint the flower petals in colours that reflect this town.
i wanted this vessel to look like an old cement wall, as i am inspired by the decrepitness of this town. i find the old facades and the wear and tear of the buildings so incredibly beautiful. so much history. so much life. this is the kind of thing that really stirs my soul.

here is the invite to our show in vallauris, france. these images are of work in progress, but i love the rawness and the way they all look together. we 3 residents have very different styles that seem to compliment each other, and we have all become fast friends, to boot. if you happen to be in the area, i highly recommend coming to our opening (even if it’s just for this).
look here for more info.
