Ho hey! I though it would be nice to introduce myself again since we’ve hit a new milestone!70k! It’s a lot of people! Thank you so much for your support.

I never post my face so this is a bit out of the comfort zone- anyways!
I’m kness, I’m a French Canadian potter and artist living and working in Montréal, Québec.
I’m in my 40’s and yes I’ve always had white hair - it started super early, around 16.

☕️ The work

My work is animal themed and cute, I create everything from scratch, from the lump of clay to shipping your order, this is a one woman business.

I craft tableware, mugs bowls and all, animal figurines, pet portraits and porcelain jewelry. I’m an illustrator by trade so this is also something I offer, in my own style (cute ^^). Custom orders are open on a regular basis and there’s a shop restock once a month. Stuff usually sell out fast - there’s a lovely mailing list you can subscribe to for uodates.

👩🏻‍🦳 The artist
I’m a mom of 1 cool kiddo, and I have a dog, he’s a corgi named Billy , a few fish and shrimps. I love to grow things and foraging for mushrooms, I walk a lot, I used to go horse riding and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’m a vegetarian, and many other things including a feminist and I believe in science. Also I’m a capricorn and I know it’s silly but it’s fun, both can coexist ok?

I was born by the seaside and lived in France for most of my life. I moved to Quebec in 2017, that’s when I picked pottery up as a hobby. Since then I made it my main job and I love it with all my heart.

I think that sums it up?
Questions that come back often : my favorite animal is a narwhal, anteater, my dog and so many more, I can’t really pick one. Sorry ^^

This post is 100% meant to be an ask me anything type of thing so go, ask away, I’ll reply to everything :)

Ps: I listen to a lot of music and this track is one of my absolute favorites. ❤️

Most of my pieces have a very short story, it usually goes like : I like foxes, I painted as many foxes as I possibly could on a mug, the end.

This one is a bit different though. The little pigeon was part of another piece, a jewelry box with blue pigeons decor and the inside was a typical minimalistic pigeon nest with a smiley egg. This was back in April when we got a sleet storm in Montreal. As I was bringing the painted pieces to the studio I slipped and fell on the ice, breaking 4 crow figurines and the pigeon box lid. I was pretty bummed because it took hours to paint. But I saved the little pigeon ornament and since I didn’t have any jewelry box ready for it, it’s now a jewelry tray with a pretty cool pink glaze and gold stars :) ✨

This one’s available.

The art vs. The muse + painting process of this corgi cup.

Each month I tell myself that I shouldn’t add completely new models to the shop and stay simple and redo pieces that worked out well and each month I find myself being like « okay but THIS NEW IDEA! » and I do it. Hence this Pembroke welsh corgi cup on its way to being available for the June collection. I think this one took almost 2 hours of painting only :D it is one of a kind, it is handmade, and it’s underglazes.

I also wanted to point out that I know these represent quite a lot of money for « just a cup » and that’s why there ate also industrially made printed mugs offered. Check the highlights stories or look for my thread less shop :)

Sketch to Sculpture - Part 3

If you missed the previous posts, here's quick summary. This is a commissioned piece that's currently in South America, it was commissioned to be shown in a gallery.

I got the list of animals and a quick brief. I then proceeded to sketching it and sculpting. The whole process took around 6 months from the first e-mail to the delivery of the finished work. All things considered it went super smoothly, no breaks, no kiln issues.

I should have documented the shipping too but I was in a rush ^^

It's porcelain and this piece is around 20 cm tall and wide.

Commissions will reopen in June for October deliveries :) Join the e-mail list to keep updated ^^

I should have documented the shipping too but I was in a rush ^^

It's porcelain and this piece is around 20 cm tall and wide.

Commissions will reopen in June for October deliveries :) Join the e-mail list to keep updated ^^

Seal bowl painting and the end result is another bowl but it’s the same technique and motif ^^

This is underglaze on black clay and the inside is a blue glaze (Norse blue). I paint 2/3 coats of white on this clay because it’s very easily taking over the light underglazes

The yarn bowl is available.

Sketch to Sculpture - Part 2

Here is the sculpture from the first firing to the glazed and then finished piece.

I learned that the sculpture is still with the commissioner so that's a good bit of information, I hope it stays that way ^^

I wanted to write more about why I'm not super comfy with this after the fact. Let's be clear : I was paid promptly and appropriately, there was little negociation etc so overall the business part of things went well. The terms were respected.

What I was less ok with is the part where I'm considered more of a maker than an artist here - in the sense that the piece is rarely cited as made by me, it's become kind of a white label thing and I wasn't aware this would be the case. Most of the art from this person's portfolio looks commissioned from others, making it hard to know what they do exactly.

And I mean it's fine, why not, but it doesn't match with my values and how I do things. I don't consider myself a fine artist but I'm not just a maker of porcelain stuff either, it's tough to explain and the lines are very blurry sometimes ^^

Anyways, I'm still very proud of this one, I hope it stays in a cool collection and I will not do that kind of white label art collaboration again :D lesson learned, no hard feelings. Sometimes we have to experience things to know that we don't adhere fully to them.

PS : I tried to stay subtle and kind and not elicit any kind of conflict here. I know social media is perfect for rage etc but I'd really appreciate if everyone stayed polite and sweet please. If the comment section goes sideways I will close it without thinking twice ^^

Sketch to Sculpture - Part 1

2 years ago I was contacted by another artist about a commission, the brief was : a porcelain sculpture with 16 animals, the animal species were listed.

I sketched two concepts and worked for a few months on this. It was my first "big" piece, destined for an exhibition in South America.

Sculpting took several weeks between the actual work and the extremely slow drying of everything, I was STRESSED. If any part broke I wasn't sure I would be able to patch it up.

Interestingly enough, I took so much time it went almost flawlessly, you can see in the pictures the base did disconnect from parts of the flock of animals but it was for the best in the end.

This was to be white with black details and no pink.

I'll post the finished piece in another post because of the 10 pictures limit.

I have to say I'm mostly uncomfortable with this piece as a whole, not because of the art itself but because of the human part of things. I thought showing the process and the finished piece and writing about this would be interesting to other artists, the public and maybe would help with moving on from this. I'm not thinking about it often but I'm still meh about it.

I learned a lot with this, both artistically and about handling commissions like this one - which I now know I'm not ok with :D

To be continued.

PS: I don't know where this piece is at the moment.

I got some new stickers, postcards and stickers sheets yesterday ! I added the stickers sheets and postcards to the shop.

The capybara stickers will be added as a freebie to your orders until they run out. I think I'd like to do a monthly sticker that I'll add to every order. I also will ship these to my adorable ko-fi monthly supporters ^^

All of the stickers are matte vinyl instead of paper. They're dishwasher safe and durable.

This batch is printed in Canada.

Good morning. Have you ever seen a CUTE SLUG NECKLACE ? Well if this was your life quest, consider it fulfilled and now I feel a bit guilty because what will you do after this? Please let me know, it will help with my day.

If you wanted to wear a slug pendant that i lovingly made with my hands, porcelain and real gold highlights : I have good news for you! This one is available now, there is only one piece.

There are also mini colorful slug figurines available in case your love for slugs wasn’t to be made public and stayed at home, I understand.

🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌🐌 (no slug emoji, a shame. )
