It's been a busy time of years for us artists who are part of santa's team of elves! Thanks everyone who has supported their local artists as part of their holiday gift giving. THIS SUPPORT HELPS ART THRIVE IN YOUR COMMUNITY. In my little bit free time, I'm continuing to decorate pots with owls...or as @npub165mn...78z7 would call these: superb owls. Hope to have a kiln firing before the end of 2024. #pottery #art #gratitude #owl #porcelain #handmade #kentucky

I have been working on spice jars with fitted lids--lots of measuring--and am happy to have finished decorating this grouping ***with more OWL and Oak leaf designs!!!!! Can't wait to put them in the kiln once they dry out. #pottery #art #kentucky #owl #handmade #workInProgress

Here's a sneaky peek (4 views of the same cup) of one of the owl cups that just came out of my kiln. You can see photos of them all on my website's most recent blog post---or see them in person at my open studio tomorrow in Cincinnati, OHIO-USA! #pottery #owl #birds #porcelain #handmade #kentucky #ohio #cincinnati #mastoArt

Every year I give a free card printing activity during my village's holiday festival. I have been thinking about owls and wisdom recently and they became the inspiration for this year's design. It doesn't show up in the photo, but this was printed with metallic ink, which has a bright reflective quality to it. If you can make it to Old Washington, Kentucky tomorrow, stop by and you can print one!!! #printmaking #handmade #owl #kentucky #linocut #art #mastoArt

HOO likes owls? I'm working on an owl pottery project--just finished carving these owl themed designs. Will be ready for the kiln in a day or two after they dry. #pottery #art #owl #handmade #coffee #arte #ceramica #kentucky

A heartfelt thank you to the amazing art community that has supported and encouraged me as I live my dream of being a full time artist. It's been a wonderful journey, and still so much more to create and discover! Patrons are just as much a part of the artwork as the artist (maybe more)-thank you for believing in me!
