Boys of Summer

Sorry folks, my Tour schedule has been altered for Saturday
by opening day for my son Wyatt's baseball team
the boys of summer begin their quest!
opening ceremonies 8:30... game 10:00
I'll open here at 1:00 and begin to bake...
nice to see the gallery filled again after the long winter!
being gone 11 days leaves one behind the eight ball a bit...
Tryin' to flow with the go...
go, go, go, go
is there a dancer here somewhere?

Rock

another from the falls
winter water seeping through the rock

The Falls

the water runs visibly at Small's Falls again
with ever fading combinations of snow, ice and water...
one could spend a lifetime there
capturing ideas and images from the rocks and water
it is a place of great magic
I tell visitors it is my church, encouraging them to visit
it's all the church I need anyway...

this experimental Jar was carved first with a crackling pattern
coated with copper carbonate
and then encrusted with wood ash in firing
hoping for an ancient relic feeling with age peeling away the outer surface
as if buried for many years,
to reveal color underneath...
