I throw to trim ⚔️
I always thought I liked sculpting through additional means more, adding instead of subtracting material... but nothing beats a beautifully carved foot 👣

I love my neighborhood so much 🤎 The Crossroads still has the same spirit running through it as it did 15 years ago, and probably well before that. It was a beautiful Post-First Friday afternoon out here today sanding some pots on the sidewalk, drinking some beer that was literally brewed 10 feet away (shout out @borderbrewco 🍻!), & striking up conversations with strangers who become new friends by the end of it 😊🙌 This little babe found a new home with one such stranger-turned-friend and I am full of thanks and warmth and all around good feels ✨️🤘

The kiln gods have smiled upon the last batch of pots I glazed ✨️ Definitely stoked with how well they have turned out after 7 years away 🤘🍻🔥
(P.S. Thank you @paul_mallory_ceramics for helping nudge me back into the studio by taking your class at @belgerarts !)

Well, I know I said my next post was going to be a recap from Miami/Basel, but that's sooo last year 😂 Plus I have way more exciting news... after a 6-year hiatus, from the partial collapse of our building & subsequently loosing my studio (not due to the building, thankfully), I have finally gotten back on the horse and got my hands dirty with good 'ol water-based clay again 🤩🥳🍻
Took longer than I thought it would, but here we are :) Not too shabby for such a long stint, but I have a lot of ground to re-tread in order to get back to where I was 🙃

So Recap #1: July-Nov 2024 - Had the epic opportunity to host @alexsenna again for another mural & hang out with friends we don't get to see nearly enough, put on some epic shows at @upperlevelgallery , celebrated the 6th @sprayseemo with @rifrafgiraffe & the City of KC, & then headed south for winter!!
Next recap?? Miami & the always insane Basel 🍻

Baked a loaf today, then made a Grilled Cheese on it with Cheddar, Kimchi, Kale, & Farmer's Market Tomatoes that I picked up yesterday ✌️ Consider this my re-entry back into this space seeing as I unpurposefully took a hiatus haha 🤪 I'll post some recaps of my "lost" time soon 😄
