I'm out of town, and that means time away from the studio. It's great that I'll be back tomorrow. Instead, this is the closest I can get to clay for today-- posting pictures. This is my biggest jar to date. I'm liking making jars more and more. This was made with 3 1/2 pounds of clay. 
Chris Beloni made this form; two thrown pieces put together at the bottom of the white slip in this pic. This will be a great 'bowl' of sorts for fruit. 
Here's the beginning of the lid for the jar. It's upside down of course, and in time, I'll trim it. 
Here's another go-round of the tumbler that I'm working on. This is about 4 1/2 plus inches tall. I like how it. I think I'll make many more of these to sell. Making pottery is a journey that is never ending... there is always a new form to make; there is always something new to learn, right around the corner. So many possibilities! The journey of pottery goes on.

Hi Amy, you are so right there is so much to learn and so much around the corner with clay, I feel the same way. The fact that you love clay comes out so well in your writing, very inspiring.
