Summertime......
......and the living is oh so nice with warm weather here.
Spending time in my cool studio, thanks to it being on the ground floor built on a slab with plenty of windows and a fan.
As always, stay safe, and thanks for stopping by...............*s*

What is it?
This showed up at the edge of the woods this spring. The closest I have been able to come is Cow Parsnip.
Any thoughts on identification will be greatly appreciated.

Majolica Monday #7
This is a very old vase I found at the back of a shelf I was cleaning out.
It was part of a workshop on making large vessels from thrown and assembled parts.
I am fairly certain the glaze is Linda Arbuckle's Majolica white.
The design is taken from a tile I saw at the RISD Museum show Gifts of the Nile back in the 1990's. The original is Calf in the Bullrushes. I subbed in the spotted cat and kept my version of the papyrus. The other designs are meant to reference Egypt without wholesale copying.

(Missed It!) Majolica Monday 6
Monday went out the window; not sure why.
Here are a bunch of fail pots that I have repurposed to hold petunia seedlings. The pots are okay, mostly glaze flaws.
I save petunia seed from year to year and also spread seed in outdoor planters to over winter outdoors. I stick the saved seed in the refrigerator for a while. The freezer would probably work well too. There are a lot of pinks but other variants too. I do it strictly for my own pleasure. It's a spring-summer thing.
