Working out of my studio in Shubenacadie, Nova Scotia, I explore ideas in clay through a wide range of objects and methods.

So cold, wet and damp in Nova Scotia right now 😩. Despite a dehumidifier going 24/7, I am having a terrible time getting things to dry. This is all that left of a large vase I just picked up. While cast ware is really strong when it’s bone dry, if it’s not, it breaks like an eggshell. #racheldecondeceramics #coldwetspring #toodamp #dryingpottery #brokenpottery #ceramics #castporcelain
I had a customer recently tell me how they use wool throughout their house as decor. I thought, what a lovely idea. #racheldecondeceramics #handmadeceramics #centerpieces #wooladdict #decorationideas #canadianceramics #springdesigns #vividcolors
I’ve really come to enjoy drawing these stylized flowers. When I first started, they were stiff, but as I drew more, they became more and more fluid. #racheldecondeceramics #handmadeceramics #springflowers🌸 #centerpieces #vase #floraldesign #canadianceramics #underglazes #handmade #madeinnovascotia #drawingonpots

No rest for the wicked I guess. Despite my best efforts, I’m playing catchup in the studio. #madeinthemaritimes #bluemindgallery #slipcasting #ceramicmolds #norestforthewicked #workingweekends #ceramicartist #canadianceramics #maritimemakers #handmade #pottery
I still can’t get over how nice that dark purple looks with these yellows. I was doing some photography the other day and at the end, crammed all the flowers into this vase and then thought, hey that looks nice! So here it is for all of you to enjoy. #racheldecondeceramics #purple💜 #floraldesigns #ceramicartist #maritimemakers #handmade #canadianmade #madeinnovascotia #pottery
