Mugshot Monday! This mug is wanted for being an absolute MOOD. I love little Caticorn… definitely my go-to Monday mug when I didn't get quite enough sleep the night before. One of the things I really dislike about the Insta algo is that it doesn't show me nearly as much Barbara Donovan Pottery (https://www.instagram.com/barbaradonovanpottery) as I want to see. Go, go, go and take a look at her work - I *promise* that it will make your heart happy!

I know a woman who just retired and does a lot of interesting crafts - ceramics, sowing, book binding and gardening - and she's tired of Meta. I think she would be an interesting addition to the craft community on the fediverse - and for all others who like to see images of craft. What platform (Mastodon, Pixelfed) and especially instances specifically would be an appropriate place for her to join?

Wow! As a fan of clay, comics and graphic novel illustration, I find this work very exciting. Garcia celebrates the leaders of the Pueblo Revolt by turning them into comic book style superheroes.

In the before picture, the mug has been painted with terra sig (from Louisiana, Virginia and Ontario) and is unglazed. This is one of the pieces I decorated at the dining room table when it was too cold to be in my studio. #BeforeAndAfter #ceramics #pottery #WildClay
