Demarest...This Year/Last Year
This Year/ Last Year...
it seemed time for a change...
surgery last april, a long time until heavy lifting was to be done... I, of course, did not wait long enough... couldn't wait long enough...thus more waiting...
needed to make lighter pots and step away from the arduous work of the wood kiln...
I wanted to make something brighter, more colorful and playful with a much lower price point... wanted to have some sales...maybe shock or at least surprise people a bit, saying hey! I'm not just a one trick pony...how about this?
while at Demarest, I realized many of the potters there weren't born when I first attended the show,
well back in time now... they didn't know of the many changes of the past...
there's a message here somewhere, but at present,
I just don't know what it is....
