    quotes

     

    "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."
    Anon 

     

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

    firing tomorrow.....

    All the pots are glazed, the kiln is loaded, and I'm firing tomorrow. I'm looking forward to NOT being in the sweltering hot studio, glazing pots. Instead, I'll be in the sweltering outdoors watching my buddy push up stumps for my future garden/orchard. Hopefully, there will be a different photo to post tomorrow night, one of a stump free swatch of land.

    I posted a couple more recipes to the Gray's Table today, one of my summer time favorites, vegetable stew with lime and epazote, and a cold weather favorite, Italian soup.

    Also, the latest edition of "In the Grove" came out today. Pick up the latest copy when you're in town, but until then, be sure and check it out online.
