    "Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful." 
    William Morris

     

    ".... And we will mature, and some element will become visible in our work that comes from our innermost experience in life, something that no techniques, nor any amount of historical training or courses in 'design' could ever foster, something that is our own, and unique. For if a thing is conceived in the depths of our being, we will find a way to express it: it may be crude and unskillful, but it will be honest and intelligible." 
    Marguerite Wildenhain

     

    "The link between the hands of the maker and the hands of the user seems increasingly important to me in this world where we are often distanced from the sources of the things we rely on to sustain us."
    Charity Davis-Woodard

     

    "Vocation: . . .where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet."
    Frederick Buechner

     

    "Nothing lasts, nothing is finished, nothing is perfect."

    renegade potters;
    the celebration we share;
    local potters all.

    glazing.....

    My goal is to fire another glaze load this week. I still have a few more pieces to glaze, load the kiln, and spend some time moving stuff outta the way so a track loader can come in and clean up my new garden/orchard area. It's supposed to be a little cooler this week, highs in mid-90's vs. upper 90's, with slight chances of thunderstorms, which will make working conditions in my studio, and the clearing, more bearable. I'm looking forward to what this next week will bring! I'll post new images on the pots page later this week, God willing.

    More bearable? How hot has it been up there? It's been in the low 90's here for a while and I'm dying. But then again the humidity in FL is similar to a sauna.

    Scott, with a heat index hovering around 100, and humidity the same, it's been pretty miserable. Did you notice I posted your link?
