2025 | Year in Practice

December 31, 2025

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to every single one of you who has purchased my work this past year. You all truly fill my heart with joy and inspiration. Work that has been exceptionally inspiring to me has found homes, collectors added to their collections, and new collectors found their way to me at events or through social media. Each piece that finds a new home is energy that carries me forward. THANK YOU. 

This past year was all about getting fully immersed in my practice again. The dust has settled, we're loving the Portland area and the PNW. Consistency in the studio and getting fully acquainted with new materials was key. Restarting a creative practice after all the big moves I've made in the past few years is like starting up an old engine, but once she's oiled up, let's gooooo! 

• I am continuing on the expanded forms that I have begun to develop over the course of last year. Starting first with a bit more exploration, limiting myself to a particular function- the vase- and letting my mind and hands explore singular details. More on that in another post! Think more servers, one of a kind pieces, treasure boxes, butter dishes, and plates. Detailed and beautiful pieces that are centerpieces. 
• I am committed to restock my absolute favorites- neptune and barnacle styles in expanded forms so you can create a cohesive collection. 
• Ahead are simplified wall pieces in attainable price points that finally get a handle on technical issues.
• I am returning finally to watercolor and illustration after many many years of longing and wavering. I have so much to express that is very limited with clay. I long for the immediacy of paper and media. One of my first series Ill be tackling will be pulled directly from my clay work. They will loop back into one another and feed each other in practice. These may take a while to make it to the shop, but Ill share very soon. 
• You'll see me around the show circuit a bit more. I absolutely LOVE seeing everyone in person. The moment someone's eyes glow when they see their piece fills my heart and creative spirit with energy to bring back to the studio.
• LAST BUT NOT LEAST I'm launching my quarterly studio newsletter, The Collector's Journal for my collectors which will share news + blog posts here, give insight into my process while I'm working and what I'm thinking about when I'm creating. This will be a little window into my work in bite size form. Collector's Club subscribers will ALWAYS be first to know about shop releases. Make sure you're signed up!

Trying on some layered watercolor effects below:Exploring sculpted vase details in this one. This piece came came out of a short bud vase series I am expanding on first thing this year!

A few projects that I am thrilled to highlight:

The Pony Collab | Custom Mugs The owner of Pony Communications has been a long time collector of my work. This year, she wanted to bring Unurth into her office and created custom pieces for her team! These came out so lovely. 

Carving in the Pony Logo.

Glaze and headed to final firing.

Finished pieces at Pony Communications!

Fabulous Feathers | Wedding Favors I was contacted by a long time collector looking for some custom wedding favors for a wedding. They had feathers as a theme and knew my ornaments would be the perfect thing! I made over 200 feathers for this project in several different colorways in wedding colors. We created a custom stamp with details to brand them for the wedding. Not knowing exactly how they would be presented, I was blown away by the display they created. One part of an absolutely stunning wedding! This was such a delight to work on.
