This has been a busy week! There are many things going on in the lives of those around me. Some great things like my daughter having a baby! I’m a grandpa! 

However, I keep plugging away at the pottery.  It isn’t my primary job (I teach art in public school) but it is a release for me.  It is something I enjoy and it energizes me (most of the time).  So here are the latest creations.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I haven’t made a carafe in a while.  The think I like about these things is that the cups stack in the lid.  This is just a trivial feature but fun and challenging to me as a potter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just can’t stop playing with the idea of a business card holder.  Below are my latest ideas.  I think I am done with this for a while.  I have about 30 card holders of different styles.  I need to clear some out before I make any more.

 

 

 

 

 

 

To purchase any of these items come see me at the First Saturday Art Market in the Heights May 2nd.  Scott will also have my work at the East End Urban Market.

It has been busy and I actually had another batch of rice bowls come out since the last posting. This work includes some medium size vases, small bowls and a couple of business card holders. Oh yes, some cream and sugar containers as well.
Here we go!

It always seems the pots are taller than when I measure them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I keep playing with the idea of a business card holder.  So far, this is my best design.

The good thing about a small electric kiln is that it can be loaded, fired, unloaded, and refired quickly. This is a second batch of work done in 2 days. There are 5 plates, one casserole and 3 large drinking cups. The cups are not shown.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The casserole has a little combo drizzle glaze on top. I was having some fun and wanted to see what would turn out.

All this work from the last two days will be at the First Saturday Art Market in the Heights Houston.
