it's friggin' cold!

i have had the blues lately. it is hard at times to live in the frozen north, where winters last 8 monthes and -20 is considered a warm day and -57 has already happened! and also it is hard to be an artist for inumerable reasons (is that a word?) anywho this is NOT whine-fest 2010, i have a point...and it's coming...
so because of this weather i have spent the last 3 monthes with a sweater on and most days a touque as well and this is INSIDE my studio while i make pots. i love sweaters and it really does help the days if you have something cozy to wear. because of all this i have been inspired to create a new series of cozy mugs named...you guessed it "sweater mugs!", they are puffy and cute, their handles are hollow to add to their puffy-sweater appeal...just imagine drinking piping hot coffee outta one of these babies! oh yes and here are some new mosaics i'm working on with the addition of lace.
