for my midlife crisis, instead of buying a sports car and running around with a way too young for me cute thing, I bought this easel.
It holds ridiculously big canvas, and with counterweights, it's easy to lift up, down, left or right.
Now I need to finish this horse painting! and put something even bigger up here!!!

I'm trying to find my rhythm of making art, and writing blog posts about it at the same time-my latest post is about my cardinal tiles.
Now that I have that written and posted I'm back in the clay studio! Hope you all are having a great day!

I just finished making a mould for my new tile design---it's a goat 'admiring' a corn plant.
Mould on the left-sloppy test press with clay on the right.
other than one pesky air bubbly under the bird's wing (easy to fix) i'm happy with my casting!!! Hope you all are having a great day!

In spite of recent tech trends, I still believe in personal websites and writing blog posts and making things with my hands- this post shows the steps that go into making my fox art tile - i just briefly mention the moldmaking process---but plan to write an article about it soon.
hopefully some of you humans will enjoy it, and not just the thousands of soul-less scraper robots constantly hitting my site.

Yes, I sculpted the original tiles and then made a mould--so now I can make multiples of my design. It's been a journey - mouldmaking is its own art.

2026-05-10 22:50:38 CEST

Look look look!!! I FINALLY have some handmade tiles. These are tests, I want to make a few adjustments to the glaze, the. I’m going into production!!!

yesterday was rough: making plaster moulds---lost one of my previous tiles, but I learned A LOT.
Today, I'm back in my happy place, modeling tiles. My decoration background is 2d Art, but this fox and flower is probably my most sculptural and volumetric tile yet.
Stay tuned, I'm still doing some carving on this one.

I hate them (META) with all my heart---would love to never log back in, but stupid me got trapped by their network effect and a big percentage of my income depends on it. I'm already taking a financial hit by only logging in one day each week (it's worth it)...soon, i want to get down to logging in every OTHER week. #goals

2026-03-11 16:53:54 CET

I can't completely quit META products (i will eventually) but for over a year, I only log into META one day each week.
Wednesday is KEN's DAY to be on META.
I feel so much better the other 6 days of the week---when I don't have all that psychological manipulation coming at me.
Wanted to give a big thank you to everyone on the fediverse - building a humane social network!

2026-03-08 17:23:58 CET

i stayed up WAY too late -having a wild and crazy saturday night-- painting on my big (to me) canvas. Now -- with daylight savings time, my sunday morning routine is a mess :)
This painting still has a long way to go, but i thought you might like this time lapse of the first steps---laying out the composition and colors---this is how i party!

Today's project--was building a stretcher and stretching a canvas. I'm not tall, but this is a big one for me. Comes up to my shoulder!
Learning how to do this has been on my bucket list for awhile--i'm still learning.
Now time to put some paint on this canvas!!

Sorry about the pain! If it makes you feel any better, the modifications are actually to improve accessibility for feline cyclists—not my poor understanding of bike engineering, lol!
Some of those designs in your link are hilarious, although it did take me a while to figure out what was wrong with the first one…no offense taken :)

2026-03-01 20:57:53 CET

Thanks everyone who came to Friday's reveal of my new series of paintings! I'm extremely grateful for the positive feedback and support.
I just finished putting the new paintings on my website for those of you who couldn't make the trip to see them in person. Hope you enjoy!

You are too kind! Thank you! Working in printmaking has been a big help with the way I think about colors, contrasts and composition when painting. I love the freedom of being able to wipe a mistake out and try again if something in a painting doesn't work out the way i hoped it would---a lot harder to do that with a woodcut.

blender is in 3d space, so you could rotate on the x,y or z axis (you can also choose between rotating from the objects center or the views perspective). In 2d space, I’m not sure any of that would be helpful-but still, hitting r and then moving the mouse without having to grab corners or anchor points would be a luxury for me

2026-02-19 14:24:22 CET

- reply

Blender is amazing software. I consider it one of the best examples of what open source is capable of. I’m by no means an expert, but recognize the learning curve is steep. I’d love to dive deeper into the 2d features, but my concentration in my studio is traditional media, and I don’t have the time it would take.

2026-02-19 14:14:17 CET

- reply

no special cursor—that’s part of the beauty- just one click of the button to move rotate or scale. You can also additionally press other buttons to constrain to axis

I remember it being bonkers at first, but once I developed the muscle memory, it feels faster and easier to move and modify shapes

- reply

excited you are doing this! Based on the open source programs I have tried, the vector ones feel the clunkiest. I consider blender to be open source art software at its best. I’ve experimented with making vector art with it, even though that’s NOT what it was made for-I think their grab, scale, rotate shortcuts are SO elegant-I’d love to be able to use them while making 2d art

i'm switching from apple's iwork to libreOffice. My first impression is that the interface is not as pretty or easy to use, but it still feels a lot less icky than depending on these big tech companies for anything.
Here's a photo i took in my neighborhood last night-because i usually post about art instead tech or politics

glad it didn't get damaged---shipping 2d art can take some abuse, but that dent in transit is an example of why i won't ship pottery or ceramic art. who knows how the package gets treated once it leaves my hands?!
Honored to hear the kiddos like the art now---I feel cool now :)
Thanks again for supporting my art!

Thank you! I don't want to make you feel sad. It just felt like, while participating in creator culture for almost 2 decades, I'd feel increasing pressure to perform---to the point i lost part of myself chasing the algorithm. The happy thing is Mastodon has been a lifeline-with a much healthier culture. I believe in Mastodon, and don't plan to leave anytime soon.

Hi there!!! I only know Ontario so far, but I LOVE Canada and hope to visit Quebec one day. We have had a lot of snow this year (for Kentucky) I love it--and a hot tea for me after time outside. My little dog is starting to dance, so we are on our way out right now, lol! Stay warm up there :)

thank you for the reminder! I guess the apology is to myself-Ive taken on a personal mission: that if I’m going to share and put things out into the world-I want it to be positive and inspiring…my way of responding to this moment is to not let it break my spirit and who I am…which is NOT a grump.

I love the little cat paws sprinkled across the view from my studio window. Hope you all are staying cozy and enjoying the winter as much as I am!

So glad to hear it! Thank you!
I loved reading books when I was younger, but my phone and social media made my attention span so short, i couldn't concentrate enough to read a book. I am reading more now since limiting my time online.

I find this to be true every time!

The internet is filled with so much slop, I'm going to give another go at blogging--even though if i was smart, I'd just unplug everything and read books instead
Sorry for being such a grump today--will be back to my happy self tomorrow!
Here's a link to my latest post and linocut:

Thank you! The eagle is by Karen Heyl. She is best known as a stone carver--so it was really cool to see her work in ceramic. The base is carved limestone. I love that piece too!

Thank you!
It is a really good show---and the theme is relevant now more than ever
I'm sorry that you can't come see it in person. i understand 100% why you (and the rest of the world) would not want to visit the US right now.
in the meantime, we are doing our best to fix our mess. hopefully we can repair the damage our government is doing right now. I blame the big US tech companies for a lot of it, it's why I am on Mastodon.

excited to share 2 ceramic pieces that are part of the Imprinting Justice: Clay exhibit opening this Friday at Queen City Clay-Cincinnati, Ohio.
these works were created last year, while I was a guest at the Corner Studio, in Ontario, Canada. Both are made with a unique grey stoneware clay that is produced in that region of Canada.
The show is on on display until Feb 28th
I hope you’ll get to see the show!

I feel like black is the best color choice for today’s surface design. Are the doves reaching for olive branches? Or letting them go? It’s what we choose to see.
