Pottery by Osa<p>New batch of ollas coming down the pipelines. The repetition of creating these simple forms is grounding, calming.

Pottery by Osa<p>I don’t make many plates, for no good reason, really. For a potter, it doesn’t get much more gratifying than producing a stack of ware that people will use time and time again to nourish themselves. Spirals and radial patterns mimic so much of the natural world from galaxies to sunflowers to primal representations of the sun. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/pottery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pottery</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ceramics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ceramics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/handmade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>handmade</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/beautility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>beautility</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/FunctionalPottery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FunctionalPottery</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/crafts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>crafts</span></a></p>
Bastian Ilso<p>Spring is here, and my windows are full of seedlings and plants getting ready for outside harvest. As a neat addition this year I made ceramic signage with notes on the backside of min/max temperatures.

Gary Edward<p>From time to time I fiddle around with certain ideas, and I came back to this one last week--squared with super-deep grooves! One thing I have learned is that a squared rim looks difficult to drink from, so that I make round as usual, although it is a four sided cup. <a href="https://earthstream.social/tags/ceramics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ceramics</span></a> <a href="https://earthstream.social/tags/clay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>clay</span></a> <a href="https://earthstream.social/tags/pottery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pottery</span></a> <a href="https://earthstream.social/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://earthstream.social/tags/mastoart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastoart</span></a></p>
