I’d like you to meet Sergei, a recent graduate of Appalachian State University’s Industrial Design program. The Raleigh home boy reached out to both me and my studio mate to discuss working in clay. His easy-going personality, jack-of-all-trades credentials, and can-do attitude have had him working for both of us since we met him at the end of August

I’ve been running back and forth between art fairs and the animal center—meet my new pup, Stella.

I'm trying to do what I can to help our state, using my Ford Transit Connect and taking supplies to Charlotte to be flown into inaccessible areas where the roads are gone. There's a great need for chainsaws. If you have one to donate, bring it by the studio, and I'll take it to Ashe County.

My IBMA Wide Open Bluegrass mugs are finally finished and are up on the web site. Check them out!

Since I decided to partake in the craft fair associated with the International Bluegrass Music Association's annual festival, I want to create some magic and history for the music lovers attending the festival. If you're attending an event that involves lots of walking, most will want to buy small pieces of art that will fit in backpacks. Mugs are at the top of my list.

I had put Fun at the top of my list of things to accomplish while in Ashe County. And I did—so much so that when I realized my phone had fallen into the river after I jumped out of the kayak to get past some rocks, I just kept going.

Watching the sun sparkle on the river and listening to bird songs over the gentle sound of the river flowing by is mesmerizing. Transitioning to a new place and reconnecting with old friends takes time. I've been here a week; there's so much to share. I love it here in my Riverview Treehouse.

As I prepare for my retreat in Ashe County, I'm thinking about what I want to achieve there. Fun is at the top of my list. We use the word fun to describe many things. Actual fun combines three feelings: playfulness, connection, and flow.

In April, I told you I had applied for an artist residency in the Pacific Northwest. I knew there was a good chance I wouldn't get it, so I started thinking about how I could provide an opportunity like this for myself. Here’s what I’ve come up with.

After two successful shows, I'm ready to return to the clay studio and get my hands muddy. I'm excited to explore my inner sculptress by working on larger pieces for the outdoors, many more lamps, and building an inventory of birdhouses for the fall. The studio shelves are full of lovely work, perfect for the wedding-giving season ahead. So much to be excited for.

My husband loves this event! There is so much for him to see and do while I work, including tours of the tileworks, The Font Hill Museum (Henry Mercer's concrete and clay castle), and the Mercer Museum (Henry's tool collection). Doylestown is also easily walkable and has great shops. Get tickets here!

Our Mother’s Day Open House is this Saturday, May 11th, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. I’ll be offering a dozen vintage Bosetti art tiles at half price in celebration of Spring and in honor of the day. Please join us at 1201 W Lenoir Street, Raleigh for what will be a lovely day.

For the last two weeks, I've been photographing pottery, editing the images, creating photos for the website, and attaching ©Bosetti Art Tile & Pottery to them, all the while knowing this is the first step in updating my website. You'd think this would be fun,

You’d think that coping yourself would be easy, it’s not. Follow me through the last few weeks of work as I try do duplicate a vase shape I’ve fallen in love with.

Enchantress is the boat my then-husband and I sailed into Beaufort, NC. She's a full-keel schooner, 60 feet long, with a 5-foot draft. She’s a cork.

There's nothing like being rewarded for hard work, like having a relaxing vacation where you can refresh and reenergize your creative flow by letting your mind wander over an endless sea or colorful mountain range.

Double the meaning this Valentine's Day by taking a class, seeing the show, and having breakfast or lunch at Rebus Works Cafe and Grocery! You can also pick up a pound of coffee with a Cracker Jack like prize made by me and a limited edition Sir Walter Raleigh mug.

Rebus is a quiet place to concentrate while enjoying a great cup of coffee.

Here's a preview of the new work displayed at my solo show, Symbols of Home–Raleigh, NC.
