I’m enjoying the moments I can work in my studio as I can look out on our garden and discover new blooming flowers everyday. These spring-before-summer-days are really the best ones! These days I’m slowly working on the last pieces before firing. It always takes me some months before my kiln is completely filled, especially…

For I tell you a tale that was told at the beginning… the one story worth telling… ‘ -Traditional Celtic storyteller’s prologue- Although I’m not much of a storyteller at all, I would like to tell you a little Irish tale of wildflowers by…
