Working away over here catching up on customs and building up inventory for markets.
For all my fellow small businesses and artists working on something bigger remember how much all the seemingly small tasks can lead to something bigger.

The importance of trimming and cleaning up the foot.

Trimming takes a considerable amount of time and you have to get to clay the clay at the correct leather hard stage or it’s either too wet or too dry to trim smoothly.
These were at the perfect stage

Sincerely reconsidering choosing to dive into pottery full time. Lately it’s been one major issue (power outages, electrical issues) after another.
I love making beautiful things, however the toll that constant making has been taking on my body feels a lot more like being a mini factory versus an artist.
Full time potters, business owners how do you hack this long term? ...
This audio is giving me the feels. There’s an elemental quality using water, earth and fire to turn something into stone. Feel like I am mirroring my pots internally and externally.
Pots always in process, person always in process.
Thanks for following along as I grow as a person and a potter.

Really going hard on the small business sound bytes at the moment, is the algorithm trying to reflect something back to me that I am missing?
For all those artists and business out there let’s remember to prioritize self care and rest in addition to hustle culture. I generally just use sounds that amuse me in some way bc amusement is basically why I use social media.
Seasons for hustle and seasons for rest.

This sounds like a complaint but it’s really an expression of gratitude. Being an artist, mom and small business owner I often feel as though I am at the bleeding edge of my capacity as a human. Yet I wake up everyday and get to pour all my energy into making beautiful things and cultivating relationships.
It’s magical and messy.
