    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.

    friday catch up.....

    DateFriday, August 13, 2010 at 4:09PM


    Tomorrow morning starting at 9am, twenty four of us will have teacups/bowls/mugs/etc. for sale in support of Greg Mortenson's Central Asia Institute. I have 20 teabowls for sale for $16/ea. Better get here (Seagrove, that is) early before they're all gone!


    My chickens have pretty much stayed on the ground until now. One girl found her way atop the Carolina Jessamine earlier today.

    The Cicadas are making a LOT of racket at night, and now I know why. If I were shedding my exoskeleton, I'd be screeching too.

    peace.....

    Along with these guys, I'll have 20 of these available on August 14, when we all raise money to build schools in Afghanistan and Pakistan. The cups sold out quickly last year, and from what the organizer of this event said, many more could have been sold. In the unlikely event they do not all sell on 8/14, I will take orders on a first call, first sold basis on 8/16. Be sure and check here first to make sure prior to calling. Peace.
