Getting up close with some new work!#ceramicart #artistsofinstagram #sacramentomakers

An inspiring exhibition @crockerart focused on Northern California ceramic artist, Mary Tuthill Lindheim is definitely worth seeing! It’s up through Feb 16.

My question… if you have seen it, do you know if the carnelians inset on the last pic would’ve/could’ve been through the kiln?

Nice to see @krismarubayashi and her beautiful work!

Ugh. This is a phony acct request. Don’t fall for it!

Feeling grateful another piece has found its forever home!
