A potter inspired by nature in Maine. My website is open for anyone who would like to buy some stickers or pre-order pots. I need some more kiln furniture to really get back to production!

My platter in Dalton's Brookie has a minor crack in the bottom, so I can't sell it, but damn is it going to be pretty to photograph anyway! #pottersofbluesky #girldinner #charcuterie #handmade #fromageauforte

Oh boy. The glaze on the mugs came out *better* than the last batch, even at least. Some of the ornaments did collapse, but I have a couple to luster anyway. Fingers crossed this goes well! #pottersofbluesky #holidaysale #prep #kilngods #pleasebekind

I feel like the town of Unity, Maine just exists to be cute fall perfection. This scenic train is the ideal #transportation especially for the Common Ground Fair, or out to a pumpkin patch. #BlueskyArtShow #scenery #fall #Maine

The first time I saw the trailer for the Wicker movie, I thought it looked like it would be a fun watch. Raunchy humor, and Alexander Skarsgard was wearing a motion capture suit. It's REAL, they're prosthetics made by WETA!!!!! Now I'm absolutely dying to see it 🀣🀣🀣 #craftsmanship #movies #realFX

Josh Hawley staffer and political operative Tommy: You are supposedly a Christian. Have you disavowed Christian domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh, The Aryan Nation, the KKK, Eric Robert Rudolph, and Dylann Roof, etc., etc., etc.? If not, what are YOUR allegiances?

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

A smaller version of my wreath vase, this one can actually decorate your #walls I'll have a few more out of this next batch of work too! #BlueskyArtShow #pottersofbluesky #wallart #hangingvase #porcelain #floral

I might be going insane trying to prep for the snowy holidays, but Spooky Season will always be my favorite! #spookyseason #thisishalloween #fallflorals #seasonalswap

#weather can be a great source of inspiration too! These pieces are a pattern I'm working on called Rain #BlueskyArtShow #pottersofbluesky #handpainted #porcelain #vase #rain #flowers

The problem with trying to do a large batch of magnets is that you need to leave a LOT of space between them as they cure otherwise they'll pull together πŸ˜†

If you have a facebook business page, Meta's default is to allow AI to rewrite your posts, or to write titles for your posts. If you don't want the machine to put words in your mouth, here are the steps to turn it off - it is not intuitive.

Well, not the way I was planning to start my first holiday sales season in years. At least there's enough little pieces I can make a start. #pottersofbluesky #kilnfail #pottery #mishaps #kilnsgonewrong

Well that was disgusting and now I'm mad I wasted the last of my gin 😭 I love a gin based cocktail, but never had a true classic martini because I really hate olives. I have a jar of preserved lemons and thought it would be brilliant to use THAT instead of olive brine to make a martini. It wasn't.

If olive brine is even in the same ballpark of a concept as that, I can only assume that as much as I hate olives, whoever made the first martini hated themselves even more 🀒

You can’t drive to John Roberts’ Maine retreat, but they can’t stop protesting kayakers. Holding signs: β€œRoberts Benched the Constitution,” a local columnist is urging residents to openly shun him, writing, β€œMay you never feel welcome here again.” Gift link. πŸ‘‡ www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/u...

A mug of mine in a #3rdplace for the #BlueskyArtShow out to camp! An experimental design based on one of my favorite mushrooms to find. Colors still need some tweaking, but I've almost got it ready #pottersofbluesky #campcoffee #handmade

I always underestimate how long all this painting and glazing takes, but pieces like this make it all feel worth it! #pottersofbluesky #handpainted #crunchtime

Working on a few #Lights and I think they're going to be pretty cool! #BlueskyArtShow #lamp #pottersofbluesky #porcelain #wheelthrown

I absolutely love the Common Ground Fair. ☺️ Feels like the whole town of Unity, Maine exists just to be the perfect autumn experience. #commongroundfair #Unity #Maine #perfectfall

Lots of painting in the works, getting ready to drop off at my first holiday sale in years! #pottersofbluesky #wip #holidayprep #backatit #lol,tit

I underestimated just how tall these wreath vases are, nearly half the height of my kiln! Between that, and the platters it was a tight fit but it's all in and hopefully ready for a holiday market next week! #pottersofbluesky #tightfit #measureyourkilnfirst #bisque

It's starting to feel like fall! I designed my Foliage pattern to capture the mottled reds and #golden landscape of peak autumn. Accented with real 18k gold too! #BlueskyArtShow #pottersofbluesky #fall #foliage #gold #porcelain #handmade

Almost missed the #BlueSkyArtShow theme this week! #undulating ribbons of clay being trimmed away from one of my wreath vases in preparation for TWO holiday markets I'm in because I'm insane 🫠 #pottersofbluesky #trimming #clay #satisfying #ribbons

The wreath isn't quite perfectly centered on the inside edge, but it actually happened to fit the beat of my music so I just took a snippet of the video as-is πŸ˜‚ I use a #ShimpoWhisper and they really are this silent, it's great!
