#FrogFriday: tadpole bowls!
Sikyatki Ware bowls w/tadpole motifs
Ancestral Pueblo, Arizona, 1400-1625CE
Top: Penn Museum 29-77-655
Bottom: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York 2018.710
While frog iconography can be found in many cultures around the world, the Southwest Culture Area is one of the few I've found where tadpoles also regularly appear. I'll be featuring these two pieces in my presentation on frog iconography in the Pacific NW & American SW at SECAC2023 next week!

hi omg what is the blue glaze you used on the inside of the frog mug???? I am SALIVATING OVER IT
it's actually a couple glazes! It's 3 coats of Amaco's Obsidian on the inside with thick vertical stripes of Amaco's Seaweed. (I don’t have enough memory to remember that so my pottery notes are obsessive)
If you're looking for amazing glaze combos, and you don’t have the means/interest in mixing your own, I really do recommend Amaco Potter's Choice glazes, you can get some really amazing combos.
I’m not sponsored by amaco or anything lol I just like their glazes and underglazes
I only have one piece for sale atm that’s JUST amaco glazes but I do really like it
that’s Lustrous Jade and Seaweed, with Ancient Copper on the rim
here are a few other pieces I’ve done with Amaco glazes
and my mom studio partner does a lot more colourful amaco glazes so here’s a selection of hers!

"Don't think I don't feel you looking at me." Kenzo said to the person who had been watching him vibe to the song playing almost the entire time, "This could be you. You just have to move. I guarantee you it's more fun than being a spectator."

I've been seeing a lot of people tagging my work as ceramics so feel like I have to clarify that I use air-drying clay and my work is unfired.

Threw a really nice little bowl tonight! It's the first thing I've thrown that I didn't fuck up in some way halfway through and need to creatively salvage. When done, I'm going to give this to my bachelor pal Paul, who recently casually mentioned he owns no bowls.

thinking of getting into lino printing or maybe woodcuts because every dyke needs a creative hobby and I don't want to do drawing/painting because dyspraxia... any thoughts mutuals?

i always loved the idea that toru is super crafty. she loves to paint, she’s constantly stealing scraps from the other kids and even sometimes the junkyard to make a crafts project, she’s really good at chalk art,,, she’s an artist and a great one at that.
