Dragons at the Mississippi crafts center

This is one of my big dragons at the Mississippi crafts center if you have time go by and see him.

Look there out there!!!! Coffee trolls

They are out there drinking other peoples coffee they didn't buy. Be on lookout!!!

Put a bird on it!

Thought I'd try making some birds I think they are in fashion.  Anyway here they are.

Robots in the city

Ah robot mugs I do so enjoy making them each one has a one of a kind drawing and no two are alike. I think that is a major thing I like about them especially when there are several collected together.

I have been looking for a way to make something that is just beautiful. I tend to lean towards narrative art and can get caught up in aways trying to tell a story. Well this time I just wanted to make something that spoke to a wide audience. I was thinking about ripples in a pond and how, for me is relaxing and interesting to watch. So I tried to capture that spirit in this bowl. I have many more with this glaze coming out soon. hopefully I can post some more soon.

New work in progress

Here are some pic of new work in progress...big dragon reading book and big jug I'll be drawing on this one maybe a cool Blues Man by a old oak tree. not sure yet.

Here are some pic of my favorite robot mugs right now

I have some new bowls and cups, I'll be taking to the farmers market this sat thought I'd post some pics of them. I recently have been playing around with some simple glaze solutions to give some of my pottery a modern slick look. I like the idea of simplifying life, and this is an attempt to simplify my glazing process. Well for some pieces, I still like drawing the robots on some pieces but I've realized I can't spend that much time on all my work. And believe it or not robots don't appeal to everyone I don't know why it is a mystery. Well here are the pictures.

The Farmers Market

Saturdays I have been going down to the farmers market on High street here in Jackson. It does require getting up early but I love talking to the interesting people that come. I am also being introduced to better food choices and I want to do some more cooking in the future and hope to use some of these great ingredients. I also get to throw some pots, it has been a lot of fun, I'm gonna try to make this a regular deal.
