Slip Trailed Swirls and Swag pattern, fun and free!!

 I have only make one of there before, I love the image of the dragonfly and what it represents. It's really involved and time consuming though. I start by sketching out the pattern in pencil and food coloring thats the greenish blue halo around parts of the dragonfly before I begin painting the slip and glaze.

The Wild Cherry Blossom pattern before it's fired. I feel a strong connection to this new pattern. It's taken from wild cherry trees that grow on my property.

 One of my old favorites, The Turtle!

Hand made Vessel Sinks, Featured In The Southern Ideal Home Show, Raleigh N.C.

I have my hand made vessel sinks featured in a booth at the Southern Ideal Home Show  this weekend in Raleigh N.C. 
I was so pleased to be asked by an incredibly talented interior designer, Tari Hamilton to use my sinks in her booth at the show. You can find her in the show in her booth Hamilton Designworks booth number 2132.

If your in the area you must stop in and see her work and my sinks She does some amazing work from kitchen or bathroom remodel projects to custom wall and ceiling finishes using several types of techinques, plasters, paints, and glaze.

Her work is quite amazing, I am so pleased that she chose to included my hand made vessel sinks in her booth. She has already sold several and will be using some in her upcoming design projects. She also is going to use some custom hand made tile in some of her projects as well. Needless to say, Im really excited to be working with her!  

Take look at her Booth and stop in and see her too!
