One of my final pieces of the @the_tortus_school workshop at @giulietta.studio and to say I’m proud of the progress would be an understatement. So much more to learn but feeling fulfilled beyond measure.

Can’t wait to see the fired pieces up next!

Ai is both very cool and scary as hell.

Thank you for coming to my @ted talk.

A huge thank you to everyone who purchased a piece from the LA Fire relief sale. Collectively we raised $3250 for the @antirecidivismcoalition and the @losangelesfiredepartment and @lafdfoundation.

I love you guys!
💚🐢🏺

Every post in my feed that’s captioned with LA FIRE is now for sale.

All prices listed are a minimum donation request but anything above asking is welcome. All donations will go to the brave fire fighters protecting the city and people I love—this includes the LAFD directly as well as the Anti-Recidivism Coalition (@antirecidivismcoalition) which is setting up a scholarship fund for the incarcerated firefighters who are also risking their lives.

To purchase, just DM me the exact post of whatever you want along with your mailing address. It’ll be first come first serve and I’ll follow up with a venmo request later.

And remember, likes are free so even if you’re not in a position to donate please don’t be shy about hitting the heart button or reposting directly.

Thanks. I love you all. 🖤

It’s pretty incredible to have a constant smile, a huge heart, and creative mind around us at all times. We love you sweet boy.

And we celebrate @chelseabauch even more than we do every other day.

This is 40.

These 🎃 love an afternoon at the patch.

9 down. ♾️ to go…

Although my pottery practice has ebbed and flowed over the years, @tortus has been a consistent source of inspiration.

Before I ever sat at a wheel, I followed Eric’s work online. His videos were a unique approach, often focusing on a single, masterfully articulated pull for a full 15-second clip—a stark contrast to the hyper-lapsed videos of other potters who showed an entire piece being made during that timeframe. Eric’s emphasis on craft rather than outcome was different, and his forms were unlike anything I had seen.

To see Eric work is to witness true mastery. His understanding ofclay can be broken down to a particle level, shapeshifting the clay with a fluidity unlike anyone I’ve ever seen. As a teacher, Eric is patient, practical, and persistent. And although I have much more to practice, my understanding of the process has expanded beyond measure over the last week thanks to learning at his studio in Copenhagen—an experience I’ll never forget, shared with some incredible potters and friends both new and old.

I went in with expectations of forms I wanted to make and a scale that immediately evokes a visceral response. What I left with is even better: a deeper joy for the craft itself.

Thanks for being such an incredible teacher and friend, Eric.
