It's Here! Atomic Holiday Bazaar!

I set up a mock display on my work table to see how it would all fit. The shelves and pottery are arranged within the dimensions of the table I will have to work with tomorrow.It all more or less fits! I spent the rest of the day packing it all up in boxes, printing business cards, painting the shelves white, assembling the lights, extension cords, tape, blu-tac, snack food and all the other important stuff I don't want to forget tomorrow.
-a lot of work and anticipation for a one day event! But always worth it.
Come to ATOMIC HOLIDAY BAZAAR, tomorrow, December 14th, Sarasota Municipal Auditorium to see and purchase this pottery!

Mugs For Days Of The Week

This is a special commission to paint a mug for each day of the week!
What great idea...and I had a lot of fun trying to sum up on a mug something that would"mean" a day of the week..some were easy. Like making Saturday and Friday really bright and exciting looking! Of course, Monday looks very serious and businesslike...

More Great Pottery...!

The fish plates shown here are part of a special order for 8 dinner plates.... with 3 yet to fire. These turned out just about perfect.








This dish commission has also inspired a set of bowls, a teapot, and some smaller plates that I am working on right now.




At the same time, I am STILL working on my winter pottery inventory, especially for ATOMIC HOLIDAY BAZAAR,, December 14th, here in Sarasota.
Below is a very nice, colourful teapot!










These are some better pictures of pottery shown in the previous post!





Folks in Sarasota can purchase much of this pottery at ATOMIC HOLIDAY BAZAAR, Sunday December 14, Noon to 6 pm at the Sarasota Municipal Auditorium!

The Pottery Story So far....

Here is a glimpse at pottery production so far...I have almost a whole kiln load unfired to do soon, so there is more, on the way very soon! For the purposes of presenting, I have tried to show the pottery in colour groups...below is a group of neutral toned mugs...



Below here, are a group of light pink green and brown mugs and plates...

This year I made pieces with bold graphic looking fish on bright geometric backgrounds, instead of just water-like blues and greens... they seem to be very popular, I may make more!
