2017-08-12 - Saturday - New pot

I made a very round pot on Saturday.

This summer has been slow in the studio for me. I've been away from the studio for a lot of it and my inspiration has been intermittent. I'm looking forward to fall.

2014-12-13 - Saturday - Goneaway Pottery Holiday Sale

Saturday was the annual Goneaway Pottery Holiday Sale. Several of my friends joined me for the annual shindig. As you can see from the photos it was a beautiful sunny day unlike last year's constant cold drizzle.

It was a good day with a steady stream of customers and many friends stopping by to hang out in the sun and visit. We had some canvas chairs set up in the driveway and there weren't many times they were empty. It always makes me feel good when friends visit and linger, and Saturday was no exception. Even Herb Cohen and Jose Fumero stopped by and sat for a while. To say I was honored would be an understatement. You can read more about Herb and Jose here.

September 14 - Saturday - Muddy Fun!

Saturday was Muddy Fun Saturday at Clayworks.  If you're new here, we hold two, two-hour Muddy Fun beginner's classes about once a month on a Saturday.  If you (or someone you know) have always wanted to try throwing pots, you can give it a try for $10.  You can find out more here.

Angela teaches the classes and she does a great job.  I always enjoy helping her teach new students.

Fun --Muddy Fun!
