As an artist and a painter who works in clay, making vessels and semi-functional objects is irresistible. The objects I make for gardens and homes are handmade, usually slab built, and one-of-a-kind. Current types include tulipieres, lanterns, planters, and candle holders.

You can see some of my paintings and drawings in clay, encaustic, and graphite at www.meganirving.com

I also make heartfelt dog portraits and will occasionally do so on commission. Contact me.

Fossil Farm is the unofficial name of my piece of historic farmland and c.1826 farmhouse. The Elk Creek runs through the property which is primarily wooded with wetlands except for about 20 acres of organic hayfields and about 10 acres of home and garden area. Almost every stone in this area contains ancient Devonian fossils exposed by the action of the last ice age.
