Retrospective Show

Opening May 27, 5-7pm at the Blue Sage Center for the Arts

228 Grand Avenue, Paonia, Colorado and continuing through June 16 



I dove into boxes buried in the basement, drawn from works hanging in my own home, and am excited to bring some very special pieces out into the public. Work which has been in private collection all these years, from the 1990's to the present . Most of the pieces have be in special gallery showings or even art fairs over the years. 

This post will be published now, with more pictures added in the future.

Slab Bowls


These soup/cereal sized bows are about 8" in diameter and hold about two cups. The rim is free-form, but each bowl has a place from where you can drink. The bottom is textured and the wheel-thrown foot lends a refinement to the hand built form. The honey-gold glaze is sensitive to the texture and shows the dark and light combed slip in the inside of the bowls.

The first one I made just for me, just for fun. I had it at an art fair, eating my salad, when a patron said, "I want one like THAT!" and I've been producing the ever since. I still eat from my own every day; it's my favorite bowl.
