Close up on a slowly spinning pottery wheel, with a blurry but colorful living room background - the walls have a large orange scribble design. My hand places a bottle on the wheel, speckled black at the base then white clay up to an angled inset bottle neck with brown rim. That's replaced with a honey mottled yellow mug, wide rounded base and slightly in-angled walls. Next a stemware wine glass or goblet, mostly a black or deep blue, with white from the rim partly down the cup. A smaller bottle in white clay, with painted angular black areas, and dots that invert black on white and white on black. Next bottle is more squat with colored dots. Then a porcelain vase with splashes of greens and blues on one side. And finally a lidded porcelain jar painted with orange lines that match the wall background. My hand removes the lid to show a positioning flange inside, and the orange scribbles continuing on top. Then my M logo above the text: November 23, art.miriamsuzanne.com

A small black bowl sits above the furnace of the rocket kiln as a fire burns below. The bowl was smoke fired to blacken it. The furnace is square and formed with off-white fire brick. Scrap would is partially visible in the burning chamber. The bowl is simple but well formed and features two scalloped decorative ridges on the exterior surface.

One of my smoke fired pots collaged on top of a photo of a prescribed or controlled burn in Sarasota County. The pot is a gradient of tones from terracotta to grayish black. It has a wide mouth and narrow foot—a very deep bowl. The lip is curved and a series of ridges follows the curve of the rim all the way down to the foot. The background shows a brush fire with gray smoke filing the air above.

Me standing in my back yard holding a large pot in front of me with both hands. It borrows its spherical form from Nigerian water vessels and has a short, flared neck. It is about 16” (40cm) in diameter and 14” (36cm) in height. 

The pot has been divided laterally into six parts and each section has been decorated with carved lines in alternating patterns: a symmetrical abstract leaf motif and a large double diamond pattern. The colors are dark brick red, olive green, dark purplish brown, dusky pink and aqua. The interior is glazed glossy aqua to reference the water this form would historically have contained. 

Behind me is dense foliage and small blue patch of sky. I am smiling and wearing a black and white top and red paints, only partially visible from behind the large pot.

A decorative off-white ceramic pitcher with intricate patterns, featuring aqua diamond shaped turquoise accents. The piece has a pronounced handle and a wide spout, showcasing a textured surface with geometric designs. The red clay shows through the white glaze giving it an antique look. There are very small coils attached to the surface like tiny ornamental ropes, swooping decoratively across the top and bottom.

An off-white handcrafted ceramic mug with a textured surface featuring geometric designs and intricate patterns. The mug has a stylized, curved handle and the off-white glaze allows the red clay to break through the texture giving it a somewhat aged look. There is also an aqua glaze painted into an abstract flower burst pattern on either side of the cup. It is displayed against a neutral background.
