kicking it.
i am mostly a hand builder, but every now and then, i find great enjoyment trimming my pots on my kick wheel. sometimes it’s good to mix it up !

hide + seek . . .
there is a fun thing going on at NCECA this year. we’re playing hide + seek with our pots ! 36 potters will be hiding a pot out in the streets of HOUSTON and if you find one, you get to KEEP IT ! here’s how to play . . . go to instagram: hide’n’seekah (hidenseekah) and follow the 36 potters for clues. FINDERS KEEPERS.

clay + calligraphy.
2 of my favorite “pastimes” rolled into one. i have always been extremely passionate about handwriting. growing up, i wanted “hand writing” to be my job. i even once hand wrote my résumé for a graphic design firm and was later told that THAT was one of the reasons i landed the job. now that i am lucky enough to create my own jobs, i’ve hired my own hand to collaborate with my clay. so you see, dream jobs can come true . . . stay tuned for my new line of calligraphy on clay.

it’s golden.
i love when my friends drop by the studio. i also love when my fabulous food stylist/chef friends drop by bearing edible gifts ! erin made this most amazing caramel corn (i think her secret weapon was honey). what better way to spend a grey rainy afternoon in the studio then by eating caramel corn + drinking bourbon ?

let there be light.
one of the the main things i love about my new studio is the natural light. during the day, i don’t even turn any lights on in the studio. i love how natural light brings out the vague contrasts + contours in my work. these simple things in life make me excruciatingly happy.

the chair.
(raedunnclay via instagram)
i have a thing for chairs. as many as i already have . . . i can always justify just one more. today was the big alameda flea market and the only thing i purchased was this chair (it’s actually more like a love seat). it will be the perfect addition to my new studio . . . maybe you’ll come and sit it in some day ?!
