Ok....it has been a long time since I've posted new art on this site. Here is why.....I've started a fascination with clay and pottery. I've been hand-building pottery for a few years and never took it very serious. I mainly used pottery as a way to get the creative juices flowing in order to paint....to think about painting more clearly while doing my pottery. Well, several months ago, maybe a year ago, I found a pottery kiln for sale in a small local classifieds newspaper for only $50. I went to see it and sure enough bought it. It is the perfect little kiln for what I was making. I can fit several plates or bowls in a fire 4-5 pieces at a time. Perfect for me. So....I started dabbling in pottery a little more. Slowly the shelves around the house were getting full of random pottery pieces and then I also realized the bookshelves were becoming crowded with pottery books and magazines. Then, my Mom said she wanted to get me a pottery wheel. Now I started to really take my pottery art seriously....afterall, Mom got me a great wheel to start with and I already have he kiln. So.....Here are a few of my pottery pieces.
Don't worry....I still have my paint brushes too......
