Time to sip your favorite brew while you meander through the forest.

I have loved Japanese Landscape paintings for as long as I can remember. Simple lines, patterns of brush marks, ink on paper with just a hint of color arranged to depict mountainous views, valleys below and often a water feature of some sort. I get lost in them, follow the patterns, look for a path to the highest point or a trail that meanders deep into the wilderness. They always stir my creative spirit to life.

This surface design was inspired by the thought that some creative spirits are awakened by meandering in a forest among tall trees, where the shadows make colors pop, eyes to the ground discovering new leaf shapes of plants, multi-colored mushrooms, curly, frizzy lichen, boldly patterned wood bark, curving and textured roots, ornate rocks, patterns of tracks in the trail, the trail itself.

Hand-thrown, Hand-decorated, and hand-signed using sturdy and functional brown stoneware clay produced in Montana. This mug is built to last, made to be used and bring a little smile to your day.

I create in small batches. Each piece is thrown in the likeness of the next, hand-crafted, and with hand-brushed glazing. I hope you’ll agree variations in color, small marks from the minerals and stone in the clay, or slight sways in design resulting from working with natural materials create the charm expected and treasured in handmade pottery.

Food-safe materials. Dishwasher and microwave safe, although I hand wash and shy away from microwaving my hot beverages.
