Switches...

an unexpected [by me] snow this morning
for the first time, I found myself glad to not be out stoking the wood kiln
it's been a long stretch of hard work, but today
I can enjoy the snow and change of weather...
 I'm chasing turquoise and I can stay inside by the fire,
be warm and occasionally go down and turn a few switches
on the 2 kilns now firing...
my body is thanking me for the rest and ease of this new method of working...
my mind wonders if they are "commercial enough"...
we'll see soon enough as I continue onward toward Demarest...

thank you all...

Just a reminder...

meanwhile... a wonderful Thanksgiving to all...
a warm and grateful expression of thanks
to all who visited the gallery this season,
offered jokes, stories and warm smiles
I am thankful to all of you for your support, friendliness
and excitement about the pots
may your Thanksgiving be grand!

Small Oval Bottle

Small Oval Bottle
10.5in.H x 5in.W
SOLD
howling winds for the last 2 days...
hoping the power holds as the big oval
is running for the first time in quite a while
called it in to help with the backload of pots...
the lid rebuild and repair has held well
but probably needs to be redone from scratch...
3 repairs now have definitely increased the size...
and the hinges don't work properly so they were removed
holding the door open with old lawn mower blades...
now that's craftsmanship!
we'll see how she goes...
