September 2026
Not much to report this month, as I'm still off work, on sick.
Still waiting for blood test and MRI results and my official diagnosis before starting treatment. Still adjusting to this much slower pace of life and trying to take it day by day.
I've made it into the studio only a handful of times, for a few hours, as I'm still struggling with fatigue and pain. Unfortunately, this means there will be no pottery fired for a while. However, I have been putting plans into action to do a big print and coaster restock on my website. By popular demand, I will be bringing back a big chunk of my old landscape work too. Prints will come first, then once I save up a little more, coasters will follow.
I am so, so grateful for all the print & coaster sales I have made since I've been on the sick, as this has been my only source of income and has helped pay for my overheads and studio rent. As packing orders is about the only work I can really do from home, it has also helped me feel productive and keep my mind occupied.
Each day is still a complete gamble as to how my body will function, still trying to figure out a plan for the future of my artistic career. Thank you for all the continued support, and please share my work with anyone you think may be interested :)
