    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.

    politics.....

    I seldom post any of my political viewpoints, but when these old WPA posters crossed my path today, I thought they were too relevant not to. Courtesy of the Library of Congress.

     

    Maybe these should be posted in oil company offices.

    I love old-timey posters/graphics like these, as well as the ideas they convey. Thanks for posting them!
