Time in the studio is great. Tumblers are still the easiest to make. Here's a yunomi style one, made out of zella stone clay, now sitting on the shelf ready for the bisque kiln.
Today, it was wonderful to sit and drink a glass of wine with Minke. She's the artist who does sculptures and decided to give me these two sculptures... and I've made a tumbler for her. I see these as a fitting picture of God and us. They're both barrel-fired. I'm already thinking of a beautiful place for them... they are gorgeous! 
This picture doesn't do them justice. Finally, it was so good to talk with Carol, a friend of mine from Holden Village. After our conversation, this is what I made. I think I'll etch some words into it and give it to her.
Tuesday is raku night! I can hardly wait. :)

Ah, Amy, I especially love yunomi #1. Truly beautiful! And I know you'll give Minke's ladies a special place of honor at home. I'll see you for raku tomorrow night. And are you coming Wednesday too?
I'll be in the studio during the day on Wednesday but then I am flying to BWI to see family for a few days. I wonder when the loading of the kiln is--- probably wednesday night? See you tomorrow.
