This year’s
show schedule was filled with disappointing sales and weather. I did many explorations of other shows and
interviewed as many artisans as I could.
There were mixed reviews which resulted in a not very clear idea of what
I was experiencing.
The winter is the time I can work without deadlines except the
ones self imposed. I like that a
lot. I get to experiment, amass product
and plan for the next season. I have
been firing year round with others that join me at the kiln. The wood kiln has been put to bed until March
or April.
The pottery conference (NCECA) National Council of Educators in
the Ceramic Arts provides much inspiration which lasts more than the mind can
conjure. It is held yearly. This year it is in Milwaukee. The conference is usually 3 or 4 days with
the host city opening its galleries to pottery, sculpture and ‘all things
clay’. I can’t wait. My friend Ken Bichell, a potter from Iowa,
will be hosting a week long wood fire workshop the week before the
conference. I will definitely be there.
Hope you all have the Happiest of Holidays. Good friends, good food, good work for the
New Year.
