Everyone’s favorite Ancient One. Celadon on porcelain. For the obligatory non-euclidian geometry I used a Menger Sponge.

 Underglaze and glaze on terra-cotta. Side note: the construction of a Chicago Star is a fun compass and straightedge project.

27 of a single shape, rotated seemingly randomly, fill each square tile. Glazed, seemingly randomly,  in four greyscale colors

A 30-60-90 triangle, aka X, 2X, (root 3)X triangle flip flopping around, with associated forms. Shown in 3 color ways: erratic polychrome, red and white, and black and white. 

  Just a playful geometric with 4,5, 8, 10, 12, 16. 180 symmetrical design. Colors are modeled off of Iznik tile, but the doodle is my own .Underglazes, glaze on porcelain.

 Lord of Yoga. Om, y’all. Soda fired B-clay with stains, restrictively glazed

An iron rich moon or a gas giant, and a rocket with a sprinkling of smaller moons . A pair that can be alternated. Brush glazed stoneware.
