Decorative and functional pottery hand crafted in Blacksburg, VA

I love pottery, the look, the feel, the weight in your hands, new pots, old pots, the list just keeps going and going.  And my obsession doesn't start or end with my own pots, I enjoy visiting shows and purchasing pots for my collection.

2022 Season

Hello 2022!  I'll be at the Blacksburg Farmers Market again this year.  I'm not sure of my start date, today is April 7th but I'll keep this page updated.  I've spent the winter rebuilding my kiln.  Last November it decided it needed some new things to keep on firing my pots.  It's been quite the journey.  Test firing is underway then I'm off to firing the pots that were ready for the kiln last November, plus all the goodies that have been created since.  I'm hoping to be at the market on Saturday April 23rd or the 30th but we will see.  Beyond April the plan is for the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of every month through the fall.

 

 

So those are the plans for now.  I hope to see you out and about!

New pots...hot out of the kiln and a new direction!  The framed tile piece is a new direction for my work.  I've been making the nature tiles to hang on their own but this is a new spin on that idea.  It's been a few years in the making.  The piece to the left has found a home but check back often as there are always few pieces in production.

 

The Dashing Dogs...

They keep me on my toes

and are great companions in the studio.
