Processing some feelings in the studio.
No lie, I am struggling with feelings of hopelessness and sadness and anxiety right now. One of the things I’ve loved most about clay since my very first interaction with it is the way it responds to deep feelings and supports emotional processing with your whole body…so here I am again, working it out in the studio.

This stamp I made for my 3D Digital Tools class
I really struggled in this class — everything about it, every assignment was so alien to how my brain works. It was so frustrating to know what I wanted to do and try my best to do it and just not be able to grasp the nuances of how these high-tech tools worked. In the end I found a way to make it work for me; I designed and 3D printed a handful of stamps to use in more material processes. I baked these little transgender stegosaurus sugar cookies to show one of my new stamps in action.
Installing my senior show!
Come check out my BFA thesis exhibition at the College Avenue Galleries in Oakland! Open tomorrow through May 9.
That’s a wrap!
Had a great time seeing friends and selling work at CCA’s annual spring fair/block party!
