It really is the little things that make us happy. We normally work in a smallish studio space with 1 minor window. One day it dawned on us that our studio is connected to a spacious patio–so why aren’t we working on the patio?,…

Custom tile completed! Each custom ends up being a collaboration…they think it up and I make it ☺️ I actually love the idea of vehicles in my tile imagery—they represent journeys …of which we have many in life. #ramonapalomatile #handmadetiles #tilelove #journey #adventure

I had the unique opportunity to help paint a tiny part of this wonderful 85’ Altadena wall mural created by Austin Scott, celebrating the spirit & beauty of Altadena after the horrendous Eaton Fire of Jan 2025. The wall features several historic buildings plus lovely imagery of local flora and fauna…so much whimsy & cheerfulness!

While in Detroit, we went to #pewabic !! A slice of tile-making heaven for me. Drying tile, stacks o molds, big kilns, presses and classrooms. Plus visited the #guardianbuilding : final 2 photos; so-called the “cathedral of finance”. For me, it was a cathedral of magical tile #tiletour #tilelove #inspiration

Setting up #nceca, then after…for a well-earned celebration. Love our team #xiemtoolsusa *For tile friends who don’t know, NCECA stands for National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts, and we just finished showing the amazing collection of tools designed by Kevin Nguyen for Xiem Tools at this education-based conference. I loved being immersed in this community of clay-minded peeps!!
