Each one of my pieces are handcrafted, thrown on my pottery wheel and then fired to prepare the bisque ware for glazing. I apply only non-toxic and lead free glazes that are food safe as well as safe to use in the microwave and dishwasher. I sell current pieces on my Etsy site (slwdezine:https://www.etsy.com/shop/slwdezine?ref=search_shop_redirect). I’m working on adding the ability to special order on this site. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/95d99870-30ac-421e-873e-9652324fb4fb/blue+white+mug+7.jpg Pottery speckled buff clay, soft white glaze over tidal blue https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/1af55fad-4e19-4788-8534-c8a7e6be1fd3/covered+soup+dish+2.jpg Pottery stoneware mini casserole dish or covered soup bowl https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/ea482f2a-bfd0-4893-9e49-7fbd21da1495/Turq+mug+12.jpg Pottery turquoise blue mugs in white stoneware https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/d4e9416d-580a-4fb9-bf55-16bbb96fb864/blue+wave+mug+5.jpg Pottery multi-blue white stoneware mug https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/52a70600-83e6-4302-ab05-f93f9266a308/new+plate+1.jpg Pottery speckled buff stoneware dinner plate, with custom engraved pattern https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/51bae372-e85e-4251-92b5-1e91f43ae147/small+mint+mug+1.jpg Pottery aqua blue speckled buff stoneware mug https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/758d32bd-6fe4-4a81-9044-35bd20649d82/heart+mug+2.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/b868b03f-4139-4b03-9c02-a3ccfafecd8b/multi+blue+mug+3.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/5d5f71cc-e71a-4ad6-86e1-bb52351a8f03/navy+mug+1.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/7133b2f6-5df9-4e66-af38-eec35aaa7d0a/sky+blue+mug+1.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/b5d0f824-3b0b-4e19-9643-2722339d66c3/soft+white+ocean+mug+1.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/e74c42c8-0960-4d90-a14b-c25663bf28f0/tidal+iron+mug+1.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/c9330bfd-2ed4-4c9a-aeae-418ef2ea61ec/chip+dip+11.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/416f3173-5685-4fa8-8875-35503b4ff6d6/porcelain+blue+mug+1.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/6dab26f0-4ef3-4ca8-b008-097a14423027/red+pitcher+1.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/21649275-dc9d-4095-a42d-aed42c7bbe96/speckledheart+1.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/1e9479dd-48d5-4e36-85bc-a1c87162ba1e/third+bowl+stack+1.jpg Pottery https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/9954aec2-e714-436a-95a2-cb755b0874e4/mug+lid+7.jpg Pottery https://www.slwdezine.com/designportfolio daily 0.75 2021-08-22 https://www.slwdezine.com/designportfolio/project-six-64zfr monthly 0.5 2021-08-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/1629385660552-T2O09VLXL0V7OJX16YC5/two+v2.jpg Design Portfolio - Form & Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/9ce953f0-dedf-4451-9342-6fc7b2ccbf5e/one.jpg Design Portfolio - Form & Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/40a6c345-d34e-49ec-9e9c-f26f074890fb/three.jpg Design Portfolio - Form & Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/203f8b78-52b8-4ba0-bd4a-0e881decc9bf/four.jpg Design Portfolio - Form & Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/392c9d05-a497-496f-83eb-925d44a4b479/five.jpg Design Portfolio - Form & Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/81f89eb5-ead2-456f-aaa9-936f58138f84/six.jpg Design Portfolio - Form & Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/aa877065-bd2d-456d-b7eb-ad2db0931560/seven.jpg Design Portfolio - Form & Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/0af9ac00-d05b-44a7-8a2a-37718e178b3c/eight.jpg Design Portfolio - Form & Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/52783e08-89d1-4ff5-9e1f-5b431f24fdda/nine.jpg Design Portfolio - Form & Content https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/1743c3ae-d195-4abd-a3f5-9f21e458b3c7/ten.jpg Design Portfolio - Form & Content https://www.slwdezine.com/designportfolio/project-five-ey9bl monthly 0.5 2021-08-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/1629387551580-O3HKCPBRO4AVUYW36U6W/Print+archive.png Design Portfolio - PRINT Magazine - Before it’s demise in 2017, PRINT Magazine was the inspiration for this cover & content project.

I like Benny Goodman’s music and his style. I chose a color palette of rich purple and black, with white for contrast. Using the B and the G from his name, I created a pattern that appears in most pieces. I also created an illustration of a clarinet, Mr. Goodman’s signature instrument. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/1629561381992-KRO9QB8D50MLUUS8YUS2/Post+Card+2+copy.jpg Design Portfolio - Jazz Musician - Postcard Design. The focal point of the postcard used to announce his concert is an illustration of Mr. Goodman, with a background pattern of the B and G. I chose an Art Deco font which is a prevalent design feature from the period of his fame. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/1629561554868-XZETSMHIR2F1MEFGTLGI/Jazz+CD-1.jpg Design Portfolio - Jazz Musician - CD Booklet, outside cover. Black is such a powerful color, and also carries the connotation of mystery and darkness. Back in his time, the jazz halls were dimly lit and crowded. I wanted to impart this feeling in the overall design. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61197713b3864429020c681f/1629561711698-OBS5HKMO46DN69NAYO6J/CD+Label+copy.jpg Design Portfolio - Jazz Musician - This is the label that was used on the actual CD.
