Been thinking on the passing of seasons a lot late

Been thinking on the passing of seasons a lot lately. So much life is bursting around me with spring in full swing and I’m savoring the sweetness of it knowing in a few months life will continue to change and move. We do live in moments, which is always such a tragically beautiful gift. I think that is what is so profound and precious about art and anything that is created with our hands - it is a moment frozen in time. Each pot I have made is a snapshot of a moment, a season, with the potential to live forever. It has been a honor to joyfully reflect over each piece that I have made and share these captured moments with you all.

The making of a vase! Swipe to see this beauty completed. ❤️

I’ve been staring at my oh so messy studio getting ready to do the some of the least sexy parts of owning a small business- cleaning and inventory. The upside of the grunt work is that this time tends to be where some of my best ideas come to the surface- so a pen and notebook are always near by and I’m ready to dream a bit. Happy Monday friends!

Packages are arriving and my heart is bursting see

Packages are arriving and my heart is bursting seeing pots in their new homes! Thank you all again and again! (Few cuties are still in my shop- like this mustard beauty- if you all are looking for a Mother’s Day gift!)
So looking forward to heading back to the studio and working on some of my “dream” pieces that have been on my list for awhile. I’ve decided to step back a little bit from market life (No worries, I still have big plans for Christmas season!) to give myself some creative space to play!
I will still have online shop updates (next one in June) and for you locals I will have mugs and cups available at @lamppost.coffee Georgetown!

Heard the heartbreaking news of the loss of a dear teacher, mentor, and friend. Marvin was an incredibly talented potter who was so generous with his decades of knowledge. I would not be the potter I am today without him. He gave me the confidence to fly solo and start Fig Tree Pots. (Even if I still keep my foot on the peddle and throw too fast.) I am so grateful for the many people who have walked with me on my journey of becoming a ceramic artist and know he will be remembered through every pot that I pull. ❤️

Seeing this sweet set happily settled into their new home makes my heart burst with joy! I am currently putting the last of the labels on so many pieces to head out all over the country and I am feeling overwhelmed with thankfulness. It is such a absolute honor friends- thank you a million times over. ❤️
