Mudbugs Workshop

Mudbug Creations I am an aspiring ceramics artist, but I am also a physical therapist working in an outpatient orthopedic and sports medicine wing of a hospital in my hometown. Mudbug Creations is my small business and I love to create functional and practical pieces. Here I post my developing work and studio, as well as my appreciation for other's work. http://www.etsy.com/shop/MudbugCreations

I was going for tiger stripes but maybe got mustaches instead 🤔 Love it either way! #ceramic #clay #clayartist #localart #ceramacist #mug #art #orange #mugshot # https://www.instagram.com/p/CO0S4O-DabR/?igshid=zvryq0m8ot0x

Not the most glamorous part of ceramics, but rainy days are good to mix glaze. Anyone got a guess what color this turns out once it's fired? Chemistry is neat. #glaze #ceramicist #ceramics #glazemixing #behindthescenes #dayinthelife #potter #artisscience #scienceisart https://www.instagram.com/p/COq2xFKD_Mq/?igshid=1aeggvb1wig0s

Lots of experimental designs came out of this kiln. Some are mass disappointments but others are like this! Look at those glaze drips! #ceramic #ceramicart #functionalart #mug #moonmug #fadeout #skymug #artsfestonwalnut https://www.instagram.com/p/COGRELdjDdm/?igshid=1ac2plgqew6xa

While I don't take a lot of commissions, the ones I do take always let me open a new door and try something a little different. I'm excited for this one! #ceramics #espresso #stackingmugs #clay #art #clayartist #localart https://www.instagram.com/p/CNnIF1ODwu6/?igshid=ysa40wpg5wo6

Ok so I am not in NOLA, it may be 4 degrees out, and Springfield is expecting rolling blackouts through the day but I'll be damned if this mess will stop me from wearing a costume!
