It's been awhile again since I've posted. Oh well.
Lots has happened.
My beloved abuela (grandmother) who lived in Bolivia passed a couple weeks ago.
Spent 5 days or so with family, just being together.
Still adjusting to work and commuting to it.
Being a priest is exhausting.
Oh, and the warmer weather hasn't helped.
And now, today is my birthday so I just wanted to be at the wheel a bit.
Made these today.
The forms just seemed to come.
Making sure they're the thickness I want so only the best ones are saved.
No plans as to what to make- the ones above will be small tumblers.
Simple, gentle forms.
These bowls are the forms that emerged.
I need to make mugs next. Need to practice lots on the handles.
Am working on finding forms in each style that I like and getting them the shape I want.
These two forms are to stay for awhile.
Hoping to spend more time in the studio in the weeks to come!
Oh, and I went to the Potters Invitational in Charlotte and LOVED seeing all the pottery and friends there. That will be my next post.
Thanks for reading and for your comments.
