This one’s a stunner. Extra-large bowl with a central cameo, in iron glaze, of a peony leaf. The cameo is surrounded by a narrow band of iron-oxide-washed church-key points. Surrounding that is a frieze, in amber, of a winding porcelain vine and leaves, surrounded, in turn, by more church-key points. Black trim and exterior. Dishwasher safe, but it won’t fit.
16.5” in diameter by 4” deep
Serve your iced tea in a pitcher with attitude. Impressed with bleeding heart leaves and glazed in two shades of blue with black trim. Holds 6.5 cups of whatever liquid you wish to put into it.
8” tall by 8.5” by 6”
One of my New Gilded Age protest pieces, with some completely unnecessary gold accenting the storm blue glaze on the interior and black on the exterior. Graced with the impression of the very poisonous water hemlock. Please hand-wash only.
3.5” deep by 8.5” diameter.
Just the right size for holding pet treats, (or people treats) this lidded jar has a 4.5 cup capacity. The black cohosh leaf impressions are glazed in a darker blue celadon on a background of cornflower blue. Trimmed in yellow/green.
7” tall by 6” diameter
Just the right size for holding pet treats, (or people treats) this lidded jar has a 2 cup capacity. Impressed with pleasingly-palmate cleome leaves. Glazed in light green celadon and trimmed in light blue.
5” tall by 4.5” wide.
Perfect for holding leftovers in the fridge, then warming them up in the microwave. Or putting a lid on your dog’s food, which she refuses to eat all at once. Holds 2 cups of whatever. Glazed in cornflower blue with sapphire trim and interior, and impressed with the delicate fronds of cosmos.
5” tall by 6” diameter
Treat your guests like royalty by providing them with 5 cups of fresh water in this sapphire blue carafe with matching cup. Impressed with porcelain vine leaves and tendrils. Or, put it at your own bedside filled with 5 cups of scotch. What the heck!
8” tall with the cup on it. 6.5” tall by itself, by 4.5” diameter
One of my New Gilded Age protest pieces, with some completely unnecessary gold framing nine blackbirds on a wire. This is a diminutive pot, but all dressed-up in gold and black. Understand that this is over-the-top on purpose. Picture the Oval Office, which is not over-the-top on purpose. Please hand-wash only.
4” tall by 3” diameter.
Sure, you’re downsizing, but someday you might want to rest in a beautiful piece. (Okay, that was bratty). This lovely jar does not have to be used as an urn, but I do want you to know that I frequently make urns for both people and pets. Here, morning glory vines around the piece with 12 red berries for accents.

New Prints: Bearing Witness Volume 1
Bearing Witness is the title I chose for a project I began at the beginning of Trump’s second term in office. I kept a field-notes style notebook, in which I recorded what I saw in the natural world around me as well as monitoring the news of our democracy under attack. It was both healing and disturbing to keep up this practice daily, but it was my way of bearing witness to the fragility and beauty of both nature and our political reality.
Often, I found it difficult to choose which bits of the bountiful natural world I wanted to bring attention to in any given period. It was even more difficult to choose which bits of the news to highlight. The juxtaposition is meant to be jarring and thought-provoking.
Each page is packed with information, including the common and Latin names of each species, the date I saw it, and sometimes some notes on the location where I saw it. On the top right are the coordinates of where I was during the period covered; the top left indicates the dates covered, and these vary in length. Also included on each page is the date, source , and authors of the news clips I’ve included.
I followed a few of my own “rules.” I had to “see” or “hear” a species to include it. Wherever possible, I used my own photographs as references for the drawings, but I sometimes had to resort to finding reference images on-line. For the most part, these pages bear witness to the flora and fauna of Albemarle County, Virginia, but I also travelled to Wisconsin and to the UK during the past year. Though the flora and fauna from those pages reflect what I saw in those locations, the news bits stayed focused on what was going in in the U.S. I may have made a few errors in species identification, and for that I apologize.
