The @13stripesbrewery Knights of Winter collaborat

The @13stripesbrewery Knights of Winter collaboration cups are complete!

This has been such a fun project to start the year off. @13stripesbrewery in collaboration with @fellandfair is hosting a Knights of Winter event on January 30th from 6-9pm. To celebrate the occasion of feasting, fighting, and drinking I created a limited edition Pint Mug using an illustration from Zach Landrum of @oldesoul.

There were only 20 of these cups made, and nearly all have sold out. If you want to pick up one of the last ones hop over to @13stripesbrewery and buy a ticket for the event! $40 gets you a limited edition pint cup filled with a special Knights of Winter beer.

These cups are fantastic. They’re literally glowing- if you don’t believe me check out my story 😉

Coming in 2021 the @spacex Crew Dragon Mug is almo

Coming in 2021 the @spacex Crew Dragon Mug is almost to prototype production!

@joshedgarstudios has helped make this project a reality by designing and printing 3D molds that will be essential in making slip cast reproductions.

This is a portion of the handle design process. A digital sketch created in @procreate . Check out my story to see a portion of the process- silicone casting master molds. Master molds are silicone negatives to make sure I can always make more plaster molds when they inevitably wear out.

I would like to say thank you for all your orders

I would like to say thank you for all your orders yesterday! After all these years, I am always surprised to find that people enjoy what I create. I can’t thank you enough for your support, and encouragement to continue creating.

I’ll be gathering orders to ship, and reaching out to arrange pickups on Monday and Tuesday this coming week.
The website also still has quite a few pots available if anyone is in need of a Christmas gift. 😊🌑

Hello everyone, I have some news concerning tonigh

Hello everyone, I have some news concerning tonight’s shop update!

Many of you know that I am a vendor at the Greenville Farmers Market, and during the Covid Season sales have been steady, but understandably slower there than in years past. Expecting this, I brought my inventory expecting to walk away with plenty leftover for tonight’s sale. Well, I was very surprised, incredibly grateful, but also concerned when I sold through much more than expected. So, I’m going to change some things about tonight’s Sale.

My on-hand inventory is much lighter than I hoped, however I will still post EVERY style of pot I’ve been promising tonight. Any item that sells past my current stock will be a Preorder. I will keep my shop open until Sunday Night, and all orders that come through WILL be fulfilled and shipped in time for Christmas.

All in stock inventory purchased will be shipped ASAP. I will alert those whose orders will ship at a later date. I thank you all in advance for your understanding, patience, and support! Please ask me any question that you have in regards to this sale in the comments so that others who are wondering the same thing can find a solution.

Thanks!!
Will

I’ve got Cobalt Hug and Kiss Mugs! (X’s and O’s)

I’ve really enjoyed the using cobalt to create simplistic brush strokes on porcelain lately. Cobalt is a powerful flux, or melter, and the glaze tugs at it when it’s fired making the blue run and blur. Out of focus just like memories of affection.

These are available until 1pm at @gvillesatmarket and tonight at 7pm in my shop update! This is also my penultimate Mug on Main post. Only one more market until next May!

I could say so much about my family. Liam, our you

I could say so much about my family. Liam, our youngest, is now 8 months and is the image of calmness and happiness. I’ve never met a more joyful and relaxed baby. Jude, or Judeman, is 3 and is wild, a passionate ball of ferociously fun energy. His vocabulary is incredible. He loves Paul McCartney, the Hobbit, and Captain Hook. My wife Lindsay is our true north, the one who keeps us all going in the right direction and keeps us from spiraling off course. She has a heart for our kids and for others, helping so many others find their way in life through therapy and theater.

I am so very thankful for them, and for everything, and everyone else God had given us. In a year of so many frustrations, we’ve been given so much to be thankful for. I hope each of you had a great Thanksgiving, full of life, joy, and peace.
