25.01.2022 Test glazes gone right #testglazes #australianceramics #townsvillemade #mymeditation #cobalt #copper #ceramics #pottery #jars

24.01.2022 Super excited and a bit shocked that my Banksia vase sold during the Ceramic Awards in Townsville! (The back piece!) the front vase was made by @leelapottery Clay chains was an exhibition that was a collaboration of local potters who had to create a piece of work inspired by a piece made by another potter, who was previous in ‘the chain’ It was a fun collaboration and very interesting to see different perspectives!! #townsville #perctuckerregionalgallery #ceramicawards #claychains #banksia

23.01.2022 Lucy and I are feeling relieved that the last firing of the year is done and dusted!! Unload on Boxing Day and then it will be saying goodbye to my kiln in preparation for moving I’m so blessed to have met and taught the most amazing people, budding potters and most of all humans that came to the wheel and became centered themselves thank you to all my students for being amazing sponges, asking all the great questions and being open to my teaching I will be forever grateful and I will indeed keep tabs of your work xo #teaching #pottery #mymeditation #clay #centered

22.01.2022 A custom mug for my awesome nephew/fifth son

22.01.2022 A little test piece... pine cones representing Canada and banksia repping Australia i am so grateful that I am a citizen of both amazing countries I will forever miss my North Shore mountains but I am so looking forward to our own mini mountain in Tas hoping to submit a piece in a ceramic competition but we will see how my test piece ends up #ceramics #terrasigillata #sgraffito #mymeditation #blessedtohavetwohomes #clay #townsville #pottersofinstagram

20.01.2022 Inspired by an amazing potter who was making tiles for her laundry... I thought maybe I should make some for Tassie #darkstoneware #porcelainslip #stamped #makemorebuyless

18.01.2022 Hey Saturday students!! Sorry about the late notice, but since Edward has cancelled his class tomorrow I would be more than willing to have an extended class to go through all steps of teapot making or the opportunity to learn how to make big pots!! ( throwing two vessels and joining!) we can talk more about it tomorrow but thought I would give you the heads up!! See you all in the morning if this interests you, bring a pack lunch and a mug to have a cuppa!!

17.01.2022 Goblet night in class tonight!!! that was fun!! We are in full preparation for wine and clay night! love my students!

16.01.2022 My first ever submission into a ceramic competition and I won an award Thank you Len Cook and Cairns Potters club what a great way to start a hard day of sending my youngest off back to Canada

16.01.2022 Glazing day in my studio!! This always takes me longer than I anticipate...but it really is the final touch so it needs to take a bit of time #midfire #amacoglazes #ceramics #clay #mugs #stillearning #wip #mymeditation #kokorodesignstudio #townsville

15.01.2022 A few new things out of the kiln this morning and of course fueling my customers with my custom roasted smooth, buttery coffee! #cruzecoffee #bluepottery #plates #pottery #handmade #townsvillehandmade #pottersofinstagram

14.01.2022 Day 2 of 10 vase for a Christmas present

14.01.2022 Day 5 of 10! Told you I suck at these things this was a test piece of a Janet DeBoos calcium based glaze with iron oxide painted on first. I have more exploration to do with this glaze.

13.01.2022 Kids pottery classes are on the schedule!!

13.01.2022 Day 3 but should be 5! I’m terrible at these things

13.01.2022 Clay chains! I joined in the fun at the tail end! But it was a great experience to be inspired and create, by only seeing one piece before me! Then to find out what the original pot was at the Townsville Ceramic Awards opening was pretty cool to see how each artists’ perspective gave them a different direction to work with

12.01.2022 Another new glaze combo #ceramics #pottersofinstagram #townsville #townsvilleartist #glazes #australianmade #australianceramics

12.01.2022 This is me pacing myself through throwing a tumbler and a sneak peak of my shadow in my studio #throwing #australianceramics #tumblers #pottersofinstagram #handmade #makers #townsville #townsvillepotter

10.01.2022 Today’s mission is to make a few porcelain prototypes for uni projects although I love my view, I really need a studio!! Next on the building list!! my water bucket is hot water so my hands don’t turn into popsicles! Not that you are asking, but balancing life can be real hard sometimes, and sometimes I just want to disappear into my own space and create #mymeditation #ceramics #unilife #artstudent #feminism #whoami

08.01.2022 3 out of 4 custom orders done I don’t normally do ‘sets’ of things but I was caught on a good day or just busy making coffee to realise what I said yes to!! I enjoyed making these, and my other custom orders so if you have an idea and are somewhat flexible (because nothing is certain in the clay world) pm me and we can work something out thank you to my customers for your support!!

06.01.2022 Taking a moment from building to play with Southern Ice porcelain i haven’t thrown with porcelain since 2008 so it was quite a change from my mid fire red clay!! Definitely need to build a studio next!! #southerniceporcelain #needstudiostat #mymeditation

06.01.2022 So today when I was throwing, a little bit of slip flew off my wheel head and hit my bucket of tools! Instantly I knew I had a visitor with me hey dad! Thanks for coming to hang out

05.01.2022 I had a little restock of my mugs and things today, but looks like I’ll have to get back into the studio right away as I sold out pretty quickly this morning so very thankful to my following of fans who come back each week to add to their collection warms my heart and keeps me doing what I love to do #ceramics #midfire #midfire33warm #pottery #amacoglazes #clayworks #kokorocoffeeandclay #sulawesi #cruzecoffee #mymeditation #mugs #tumblers #townsville
