Wow! I can't believe how much stuff I have made for tomorrow's show. I hope it isn't a bust. I must have 6 large boxes of stuff. Lots of stocking stuffers, plus some good sized vases and bowls and much more. The hardest thing is selling pieces I really like, but I can't keep it all and I can't give it all away, either. I've spent a lot of money buying the kiln and slab roller and potter's wheel. (Well, my dear wife bought me the slab roller.)
Some of my newest work is pictured below. That juicer has been popular in that color. I suppose yellow is a kitchen color. The head started out to be Santa Clause, but then it didn't look like him to me and I decided it was Jack Frost. Then when I put the glaze on it and fired it, as I was taking it out of the kiln, I decided it was my friend, Wayne, from church! (Don't know if he'll think that is a complement or not, but I really like it.)
The slab vase is an experiment using stains instead of glazes. It's very rustic and I'm pleased with it.
I love the last one. It's much more organic than most of my work. It sort of looks like a lava flow if the lava was guacamole! :-) Anyway, it's a very different candle holder and I'm very pleased with how it came out.
