Every session I make an ugly vase. Tonight I demoed slip transfer, painting with slip, sgraffito, and slip trailing on one vase. It's really ugly but I kinda like it. #ceramic (at Clay By The Bay Pottery Studios San Francisco)

Walking half way to work with a sculpture and came across this gem of a truck. So awesome I am going to have to find it again and spend some time taking photos. #walkingtowork #sculpture #old #ceramic #texture #truck #oldtruck #pottery #clay #tentacle (at San Francisco, California)

Today I made a Todd. Todds are sculptures that I make when I feel over loaded with new ideas. They are a puzzle I visit once or twice a year to clear my head and try to figure out how to make them stand on their butt spikes with zero breakage. I have never had success and I typically end up pissed off at them. Just like most of the Todds I have met in my life. (Sorry if you a Todd... you're probably quite lovely) I am trying to use up my test clay bits from my @uspigment tinted clay tests. . . . . . . #clay #todd #sculpture #pokey #ceranic #tintedclay #uspigments (at Clay By The Bay Pottery Studios San Francisco)

I must have been inspired by all the penis artworks @kidtofer has been making in the studio. Decorative coils will be part of my continuing Hand Building class this week. # (at Clay By The Bay Pottery Studios San Francisco)
