When the Lights hit me–

Posted on June 3, 2012 by Kira Call Ceramics

I’m still hiding in a few shadows, but if I didn’t have any shadows left, I’m afraid I would be scorched by the sun. Metaphorically speaking, of course. Secrets can be destructive or protective. It depends on who is keeping … Continue reading →

Mud Time!

Posted on May 31, 2012 by Kira Call Ceramics

As promised, I finally have a couple of pictures of my outdoor makeshift studio space… and me at work in it 🙂 I haven’t really had pictures of me at work in the mud before now… sometimes I take pictures … Continue reading →

Magic

Posted on May 30, 2012 by Kira Call Ceramics

Some things do feel like magic, like the first time a friend grabs your hand trying to be more than a friend, or when the wind blows a shower of blossoms to swirl on the breeze. I found magic a … Continue reading →

Posted on May 26, 2012 by Kira Call Ceramics

    This was a bottle that I soda-fired earlier in the semester– not realizing just how much residual soda there was in the kiln, I figured that a couple more pounds couldn’t hurt… and this is just one of … Continue reading →

Saffron

Posted on May 25, 2012 by Kira Call Ceramics

Had a late night last night. The movie was alright (Dark Shadows) but not Tim Burton’s best. It feels like he was trying to conform with the current vampire/werewolf culture. Dinner was delicious, but Olive Garden doesn’t do less than … Continue reading →

Time, Lust, and Love

Posted on May 24, 2012 by Kira Call Ceramics

If the sun ever shined, you would reach inside my mind, But nobody seemed to warn you of what you might find. A dance, a song, a memory of lies, Music, madness, you see love in my eyes. Love? Not … Continue reading →

Day of Reflection

Posted on May 23, 2012 by Kira Call Ceramics

Hmm… chocolate chip cookies, french-pressed peaberry coffee, and rain out the window… I don’t know what to think about the rain. I was wishing for it a few days ago, but now all I can think about is when the … Continue reading →

Clouds in the sky, but no shells on the seashore.

Posted on May 22, 2012 by Kira Call Ceramics

I always have these dreams that I am walking down a beach looking for seashells, but I never find any. The most I ever find are tiny fragments and crumbs of freshwater shells, even if in my dream I am … Continue reading →

It’s May 21st. That means that there are only 13 days until I go back to campus for the workshop… yay! Yeah, I’m a little stoked. I made yesterday a full studio day. I stayed outside and worked on new … Continue reading →

Summer Pots

Posted on May 20, 2012 by Kira Call Ceramics

Hey there. I’m back…  I did hand build yesterday, just like I said I might. I also taste-tested my first successful batch of beer 🙂 aside from being slightly tangy, it was perfect. Full-bodied toasty dark flavor, a light buzz, … Continue reading →
