Tom Gray Pottery,
latest firing November 18-20
Celebration of Seagrove Potters in the historic Luck's Beans Plant on Hwy 705, south of Seagrove.
"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."

as always... the newest stuff from this firing looks great. We really need to get down and see you again soon. Wanted to wish you a Happy Father's Day Tom.
I know it's late, but thanks Matt. Still gonna try to catch up with you two soon, for a pig's pie :-) Been a weird summer in some ways, but beginning to settle down. Peace to you both.
