My neighbors
I met Melissa Fevyere, who's been In business now for 20 years, when she moved her shop to the corner of 74th & Greenwood in Seattle. She started selling my range of vases almost immediately & continues to carry my bud vases. Every single person I've met, there has been wonderful. The shop is ever evolving, but always beautiful. It's a lovely day when I get to pop in to pick up or deliver, sometimes just smiles & a hug.

Inspiration is everywhere!
Colors of winter sky, platelets of falling snow and splats of rain have been on my mind recently so I set myself down to capture this on a large bubble pendant. It's fun to stray from the thin white stripes every now & then. However, if one were to look closely, they'd see that there are stripes under the spots. This piece had unwanted smudges on it. Rather than toss it, I decided to experiment.
It was an opportunity to try something new.

Working out details & fine tuning for some projects can take a long time. It was almost 2 years before I could see these finished products installed. Before that, design drawings & tests for glazes needed to be created as well as wiring that would be appropriate for this indoor/outdoor dining room in tropical Costa Rica.
The 1st thing that springs into my mind when I imagine warm climate decor is either colors or white. I was impressed by the designers' choice of deep greens. The result is cool & classy with references to ancient Mezo American stonework.

It was a pleasure working with Rosa from Studio Collective, such a good communicator.
