Circle of Eight Sale

First of two posts. Went to the Circle of Eight sale yesterday. Was certain to not take my checkbook as I easily could have purchased a pot from each of the artists. I really like the handles in these two jugs... that are made by Adrienne Dellinger.
Simply amazing forms, too. She digs her own clay and makes her own glazes.
Jen's pieces always catch my eye. The bright blue....
plus, the gentle, grace filled forms.
Someday, I'll purchase a cup of hers like one of these. Her use of the black stain is simply beautiful!
It was good to see Ron Philbeck there and his pots too. They've changed a bit.... good, light work!
Then I went to the studio and did a bit of etching on this piece. Also managed to throw this new form...
A tumbler! Check out the next post for an updated photo of it. I think I'll be making more of these.
And threw these too... these will be the top parts of soon to be chalices. Check out the second post for more!

Thanks for the tour, I almost feel like I was there. I like how the light is different in the sky in the Autumn - creating long shadows.
