"I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend." -Faramir, The Two TowersI’ve been working sneakily on this mini series, desiring to focus on empowering symbols that inspire fierceness coupled with divine feminine power (as represented by the moon). What do you think? The first release will be this weekend at The Virginia Faire, where I will be every weekend for the next 5 weeks! The excitement is intense over here as I make preparations for the season, I really look forward to seeing you lovelies out there!! Whose coming?!There is a very good chance I may be able to do this series as a limited stock ‘made-to-order’ for my folks who live far away. Please let me know if you’re interested down below! 🖤Ps. Thank you for a sincerely lovely/good for the soul weekend at May Day Faerie festival. Many of you may not know that I started my vending journey at faerie festivals many moons ago (about a decade?!). Coming back for the first time after my life went boom, sharing the same love and remembering one another– I couldn’t ask for a better balm for the soul. Love you sweet fae fam and see you next year! 🧚‍♀️

Hello my friends! I wanted to announce that I will be at my favorite bookstore this weekend with my latest art for the annual Moll Dyer day in Leonardtown, MD. The town will be opening up for festivities, both educational and fun starting Friday. I will be set up starting 10am on Saturday. It would be so nice to see you, catch up, share stories and hugs!✨

The final hours I want to take the time to thank everyone for the most incredible year for O:EP yet. Now that I am finally in rest/planning mode, I am processing the enormity that was ’24. I know many of you have enjoyed hearing where your support has gone toward/or will, so here it is! First and foremost, I will be replacing the deck I use surrounding my studio, which is a very beautiful thing as I am dodging holes in the wood omw to the kiln shed haha! I am also now very close to being able to afford another kiln– this will be life-changing in so many ways for my process, including getting more sleep😌. Lastly, kitty rescue! Thanks to you I’ve been able to afford/support trapping and rehoming kitties this fall (5 total and counting!). You make a huge impact in my world, and I will never be anything but loving and grateful beyond words to my friends out there who own my work. I love ya angels, that’s all there is to it!🖤The year ahead is already exciting and full of newness! I won’t reveal too much yet but two things. First, I am really passionate about revisiting/revising/enhancing previous work, with delightful deviations! I want to take things to the next level and offer a new view on my classic work I’ve been producing/sculpting for years. For those familiar with my large sculpture work– get ready!Second and most importantly, I find that it is finally time to embark on THE series. It’s something that I have needed to create since I started clay. It is sacred to me and I’m taking the entire year to give it justice! It’s going to make me feel very vulnerable, but I simply have to get it out there. I’m getting a little zooted just thinking about it!! A very special kind of magic incoming.. I can’t wait to share!!Wishing everyone a year ahead full of passion, exciting manifestations, and fistfuls of love!Rach O:EP

In each of us dwells a void, a potentiality born not of what we lack but what we wait to become. A vessel cannot be without absence, an anticipation of change, limitless and unbound. In bonding it with one’s intention, this ‘space’ directs, transforms, and grants purpose. To fill a vessel is to give its boundless meaning a name, a direction to move and to become. When we merge the vessel of ourselves with the vessel of our intention, we create a cycle that feeds upon itself. The oroboros is such a vessel, the body fed and nourished is such a vessel, dreams are such a vessel. .It has been a smidge over a week since my winter release. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support! I am hard at work packing pieces for their travels near and far. If you need something special in your world or in the world of a friend, consider my work or the work of another small artist. Be good to one another. 🖤
