Created with Sculpey, from the mind of Axel. When he learned how to roll spikes, his imagination took off.

This planter was made for @jhomdraws - a friend and inspiration. She helped design my makers mark (last photo) and this planter was the first object imprinted with it. Looking forward to seeing what plant she chooses. #ceramics #pottery #makersmark #lavaglaze #planters #handmade

Happy Memorial Day. The green accent in the glaze nicely matches the algae and kelp. This one is called: Rail.beam.gazed. She has one of the best views in the bay. #ceramics #pottery #albanybulb #berkeley #eggs #industrial #finderskeepers #memorialday #bayareaart #urbanart #natureart

Rainy May Saturday. Caught the train coming by. This one is called: scrap.scales.equal. #concretejungle #egg #streetart #ceramics #pottery #eastbay #find #finderskeepers #trains

This one, a palladium glazed XL egg, landed yesterday somewhere in Oakland. It’s name is cats.brass.leans. Can you find it? #ceramics #streetart #industrial #hideandseek #egg #oakland #graffiti #urban #design #leica

Three days late but better than never. This one is called: solar.plays.frame. #streetart #ceramics #industrial #concept #egg #hideandseek #freeway

What a glorious day in California. This one - unpublished.zoos.builders - is enjoying the entwining vines of some pea species. This egg is a simple matte black over stoneware. Nothing special, but not much needed to compliment this scenery. #ojai #hideandseek #ceramics #egg #conceptart #california #chill #springbreak #spring #flowers #nature #vibes

This piece named - rocked.hideaway.beauty - has a mottled look achieved with lava glazed over metallic. Fitting for this land of geological dynamism and exposed rich minerals. Joshua Tree has a special place in my heart. Through college we’d come here to rave, camp, and expand consciousness. It was a mere two hours away from campus to the Mojave. So many good memories greeting the sunrise. #joshuatree #ceramics #concept #industrial #minerals #desert #hideandseek #clayart #mojavedesert #memories

Solar.fizzle.ramp is hidden in a nest on the campus of my old college. Not to get too sentimental, but the smell of the campus - jasmine mixed with sage - brings back a flood of memories and emotions. #ceramics #hideandseek #pomonacollege #concept #streetart #inlandempire #industrial #clay #eggs #homesweethome

This one is named yards.woke.margin. Nestled in good company. #streetart #ceramics #concept #losangeles #venicebeach #coffeeshop #hideandseek #industrial #ingoodcompany
