The after flood... The drying room roof just lost it at some point around 1 am, thank god only on one side. Lots of pots to ♻️ and make a new "surprise clay body" πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‚ #pottery #potterslife #clay #argilla #barro #blueskypottery

We just got flooded and, how shall I put it... Reversed 50% of dry greenware to its liquid form. Quite mixed up, as well as all, like 100% of the wild clay tests. Quite the experience. #pottery #clay #potter #argilla #barro

A real #potter life day 😭🀣 (it's totally fine to laugh, not enough life to cry πŸ˜‰) #clay #ceramic #blueskypotters

I'm testing some highly grogged clay to pinch into little cups I will only glaze inside and over the border to keep that... feeling. I personally love the feeling of holding a mug with a story told through its texture. any other texture lovers out there? #pottery #clay #argilla #barro

I just deleted FB and IG, my 20yr long accounts. I did not want to give Himmler one more click. Now, back to wedging for tomorrow.

Vamos por un #chupito πŸ₯ƒ? #pottery #ceramica #barro #argilla

Add a few border collies and you get my life

Was using two buckets, but three sounds a LOT better πŸ˜‰

These go in as soon as we get the kiln. #pottery #wildclay #wildpottery

We always have a choice in how we see things. The right mind sees connection and richness, the wrong mind sees division and lack. It's written in everything that exists. Let's sieve our mind from division thoughts and see through pain. Beauty is simply hidden. No matter how muddy it gets

Amidst the ongoing turmoil take 20 seconds of calm β˜˜οΈπŸ•ŠοΈβ˜˜οΈ #beaches

Just opened the kiln and everything turned out beautifully! πŸ˜ƒ These pieces are ready to head out to galleries and my shop. Excited to share where they’ll be going. Stay tuned for updates! #Pottery #Ceramics #KilnOpening

Maddow: I enjoy Bluesky very much. I do not enjoy any other social media platforms at this point at all, but Bluesky is different and I don't have any connection to them at all other than the fact that I'm a happy user there

I love it when I watch someone's feed and they're throwing clay in a white studio, dressed in a white shirt and looking ready to host some white wedding, prepared by a white studio designer. This is how I roll... Always forgetting to get my ring off too... #pottery #clay #ceramica #barro #gres

Worth every line

In the aftermath of the LA fires, Kelly Akashi shows us the importance of what is perhaps the most basic function of art β€” the ability to imagine and create new possibilities, to see the potential futures in a seed.

Love them

That's one thing I've never done or tried.

One died but two are enough to test. #wildclay #pottery

On my list, heard really good critics about it.

Free, local mud! So instead of paying for bagged, tested and reliable mud now called clay I rather go walk with bags and buckets, hunt for specific cracks in our little Spanish inland scenery to match my request then spend a few weeks figuring out which one will fire a-πŸ†—. Why?? Cause it's 😎😎😎!

Wild clay coffee β˜• shot mugs... Will it taste muddy, Kenyan premium roast or just explode in the kiln and taste utterly bitter?
