Fantastic Ceramics

I really don't know how I happen upon these great artists, but somehow I find them and I'm amazed at how much great functional work there is in the world.

Lauren Smith makes fantastic ceramics. She just got her MFA from University of North Texas. Her work is simple, yet contemporary. Subtle, yet engaging. I am quite envious that she has a cohesive body of work. That is something I am trying to work towards, but I haven't achieved yet.

Images are from her website. Go check it out!

In other news, I just made a 21" masonite bat with a jig saw. I love being crafty! I made some wide bowls this weekend and I have been dying to trim them. Images to come!
