Iโm so incredibly proud of this sculpture I did for the latest show at the gallery. Sometimes I surprise myself with the things I make and this was one of them
Crowded art gallery opening with visitors viewing framed artwork on white walls, track lighting overhead.
Visitors mingling at a gallery event, some taking selfies, with lens flare from overhead lights.
Window sign reading โRIDGEFIELD art galleryโ with tagline โA local artist cooperative brought to you by the Ridgefield Art Association 501(c)(3)โ with blurred visitors and balloons inside.

I photographed the opening of the Ridgefield Art Gallery, where my wife @kaylin-rose.bsky.social is a managing member. I like these dark and moody images looking in from outside.
In the final throws of holiday market prep and I once again am struggling to release these pieces from my greedy claws. I hate repainting the same thing twice so once itโs gone I probably wonโt paint it again โจ
Been watercolor painting on maple seeds to pass the timeโจ
Ooooo, you could totally do a set up!!! And I donโt think itโs too expensive either. Everything around me is flammable sooo
Yeah! Iโve only done it once and itโs a WHOLE thing, but the results are so pretty! Have you seen people do small scale raku with a microwave?
Oh ew precision. May the clay gods favor you because thatโs the worst
Cold rain and wind whipping around me as I clutch my potted jasmine and grumpily mutter, โHappy first day of spring?โ ๐โ๏ธ
This! I have a group raku firing on Monday and my kiln is only 1/3 full ๐ฉ
Ohhh dust is diabolical. I lived with a dust bubble on my last iPad for too long and every time my eye would catch it my blood pressure would spike lol
Ok! Yes! Jack in boxes from hell. I started smacking mine against the edge of the counter instead of the slow peel - that way youโre already expecting a loud pop
Dipping back into tiny paintings. When I get my paws on some nail art/miniatures brushesโฆlet me tell you!
They are SO satisfying right?! If you sew them on something Iโd love to see! I need to find something to sew some buttons onโฆ
These pearlescent buttons I made were a labor of love to be sure, but Iโm oh so pleased with them โจ
Lovinโ that croc in particular ๐
The colder it gets the more I feel like a frozen frog in a pond and I canโt move my limbs to do anything!
Choo can do eeet
I hate it here
My little dog just snuck in the shower only sit down and stare lovingly up at me. And as his sweet face got all wet from the water droplets, all I could hear was Mr. Darcyโs voice saying, โโฆI love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.โ
Ok but this took me out because โworm gruntingโ are the ugliest words put together and I know exactly whatโs that kkriiick kkriiick sound it - itโs perfect
Oh EW! I didnโt even notice they were rectangle till just now! Nooo
They make fake bubblegum cigarettes. Look badass AND have a tasty treat! Win win LOL
Same girl. Same.
I say we tip the leafy scales and have malls turned into conservatories with little, unassuming shops tucked between trees, quiet cafes, live classical music, and a little stream running through it all!
Testing out these old wooden press molds that belonged to my Papa. He used them for beeswax, so Iโm excited to see what I can make with ceramics
Fremont Bridge - Portland. OR
I always get a little giddy going over it โจ
Wolf moon tonight ๐ฏ๏ธ
When I was 11 I taught myself how to make beaded lizards. This had kids from every grade coming to demand their own. Without a thanks I worked myself to the bone and it hurt my giving heart so I stopped making them. Decades later Iโm here finally making my own and learning to open my heart again.
Ahh that makes sense! I have a group raku day looming on the horizon, so I want to get some cool stuff ready for that! Pam mentioned flowers, what about a bell flower series where each bell has a different type of flower on it?
