I was poking around the internet on my lunch break today, and came across this post about a new book of dinosaur art. (Well, it’s less about dinosaur art and more about current ideas of what dinosaurs may have looked like, and the processes scientists use when they’re speculating about that kind of stuff. Still totally the coolest thing I saw all day.) Now I want to do a series of plates or tiles or something incorporating sgraffito and stamps and crewelwork and feathers and birds and dinosaurs.
We shall see. Perhaps that will be my Christmas present to myself: some time spent playing with dinosaurs.

My name is Maaike Charron, and I'm a potter in St. John's, Newfoundland. I started fiddling around with pottery in summer 2006, when I was told volunteering in the local clay studio would get me free studio time. I mostly taught myself, spending a lot of time poring over books, magazines and websites, and occasionally pestering the more advanced (but very helpful) potters around me with questions. After about two years, I decided I'd gotten good enough to go into business for myself. This blog, started after my first big craft fair, was created to document the process of becoming a wondrously succesful craftsperson. (Or it will document How Not To Do It. We'll see.)
