Pottery ‘In Situ’

I hope everyone is having a fantastic summer. I wanted to share some pictures with everyone of my garden, and some pottery pieces in and around the studio.

A raku owl stands guard at a magical garden door.

A neighbour gave us this old door and we painted it red and put it in the garden to add some more colour and visual interest.

I saw some of these tiny yellow flowers on the ground and thought it might be neat to press some into the clay. Can anyone identify this plant?

The plant behind the vase came in with a rose bush that a friend divided, and now has been transplanted to a few places on the property. Does anyone know the name of this plant?

It has been a strange year weather wise in Nova Scotia, but we should have plenty of grapes to make wine and jam with, and lots of tomatoes for sauce and salsa!

Buddha is surrounded – by beauty.

The chives survive, though I need to catch up on my weeding!

Pit-fired Pottery in the studio.

I love the way this pottery looks behind the aged barn board that is behind my work bench in the pottery studio!

More raku vases out and about at the studio! I love the contrasts of the colours of these pieces when placed outside in situ.

A raku cherished vase and plant!

I love the flowers on this clematis plant. I am hoping to add a new clematis plant to an arbour I am building for the garden!

Some photos of the garden! So much goodness for the bees! The solar light in the middle belonged to an avid gardener who is no longer with us. I like to think that she is smiling somewhere that it is still in a garden.

Our handsome and wonderfully kind studio cat Onyx! I am not sure how he will feel when the tractor is moved into the garage in a couple weeks once I fix my shed for the tractor.

You can see the summer is in full swing here at the studio! So much inspiration from nature! Which vases or images did you enjoy most?
