Blackbird Studios (my lovely friend Paige Coull) has been putting together some great take home pottery pieces that you can paint yourself during this weirdy-beardy time of social distancing. She has a series of bins on her driveway that offer contactless pick-up of ready to paint items. You can choose from a bunch of different glaze colours and are provided with bags to return the painted pieces for a final firing. Once they are done you pick them back up and enjoy your new pieces!
Mavis and I painted this pair of side plates together that turned out kinda cute. The top two photos show the painted pieces and the bottom two show them after firing. Mavis chose the background colour and we painted it solid together, then she added a black squiggle to each one and I doodled on top. Definitely a fun quarantine activity and a nice keepsake 🖤

what a great project!! definitely keeper mementos of a Covid spring!
