meow I’m not even sure about the direction I’m taking now. It’s far from my original idea, but I’m definitely more excited about this. Right now, it probably just looks chaotic and all over the place, but after the last critique, I realized I’m still not finished revisiting my childhood, so here I am. This…

Summer 2025
This summer, I want to work on the wheel to sharpen my skills and have some sort of inventory to sell my work. I got overwhelmingly positive feedback on the vases I made for my thesis show. Unfortunately, those are hard to sell (not that I am actively trying to). I am making mugs, plates,…

FINALLY GRADUATING!
While I am 28 years old, this is a huge moment for me. I wanted to go to college so bad, but the circumstances were never right, until. I graduated from high school in 2014 in Mexico City. I went to a school named Colegio Rossland (now closed due to COVID-19). 2014 – High School…
