How is your New Year going? I'm off to a slow start after the incredibly crazy holiday season and a very successful monthlong show at the Blue Genie Art Bazaar! I am so grateful for all the support of the local shoppers and to Blue Genie for putting on such a great event...Thank you everyone!!!<br />
<br />
Now it's time to catch up on paperwork, website stuff, reopen my Etsy shop, and plan for the coming year. You can also find some of my work locally at Art For The People Gallery on South First, Assemblage Contemporary Craftsmen Gallery in Buda, and Sugar & Paris on South Congress.<br />
<br />
May we all have a productive, happy new year :)<br />

It's that time of year again folks! My booth is all set up, stocked with lots of goodies for your gift giving needs. This year I've expanded my collection with a set of cute notepads and pencil / pen holders, a set of small and smaller planters and cat and pug pins to adorn your bag or lapel! And don't forget the quirky ornaments to trim the tree.<br />
For those that might not know, the Blue Genie Art Bazaar is a month long shopping experience with over 200 artisan goods in a warehouse on Airport Blvd next to the old ACC Highland Campus. It is open 10 - 10 every day from Friday, 11-22-19 until Christmas Eve. Admission is free and they have a bar, a play area for kids and free parking.<br />
It's a great place to find unique gifts your loved (or liked) ones and it helps support so many local makers!<br />

In addition to the BGAB, I am also now stocking some mugs and ornaments at The Ginger Root, a fun little shop located in North Austin off of Burnet Rd. Official address is 2105 Justin Ln. Check their FB page <a href="https://www.facebook.com/The-Ginger-Root-1011398598895192/" target="_blank">here</a> - it is such a cute shop with a great vibe. Happy Shopping!<br />

I'm excited to show off my new mugs based on the mural by Daniel Johnston on Guadalupe and 21st by UT. Please shoot me an email if you would like to purchase one, I will be updating local Austin places that will carry them soon. I also have a mug version of the I Love You So Much mural on the side of Jo's Coffee Shop on South Congress. These make great Austin Souvenirs or gifts! The designs are actually etched into the wet clay and a heart shaped stamp is featured on top of each handle. (I'd also love feedback on which one you like better the top brushed green or the bottom peeled paint green texture?)<br />

This April I will be in a group exhibition at the Coop Gallery in my home town of San Angelo, Texas. It is April 21-22nd in conjunction with the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts Ceramic Invitational opening. I've got a lovely platter, a yard cat sculpture and some mugs planned to display.<br />

This bird fruit platter was made by rolling a slab of clay and then applying underglaze and stamping for texture. After it dried on a hump mold, it was bisque fired. Then I applied more underglaze and hand-painted the bird image over the top. Clear glaze was added and then it was glaze fired to 05.<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I enjoyed creating this piece because it allowed me to play with screen printing (polka dots and some stars on the bottom of the platter) and to explore asymmetry. I found it refreshing and satisfying to create a functional piece with rough, torn edges, and hope to continue in this vein with my hand-built work!</div>
