Thanks Everybody! The encouragement always helps.
Sorry to disappear like that, time has been flying by. I've been so darn busy the past 2 months, I haven't gotten much a of a chance to keep up with all of my correspondence. I'm currently in the middle of a big push to get a few dozen works done for my BoneOrchard collection in time for regional seasonal events and expositions. Usually this would be no problem, but I've found myself home schooling my 2 critters as well as running my studios and working as the horticultural tech for the local community college. I guess I needed something extra to do.
I'm hoping to get caught up this next week.

hello !
Nice to see that you are here too because I see your blog and love your crackling glaze , like the one we see here .
I like your way of making , some well-done in the finishig and also a little kind of "foolish" -"fun" - "expressive" in the color and some perosnal doing. Sorry I don't speak so much english and i hope you will undersatand me.

I am the proud owner of this awesome cup by Zygote. It is really cool and a joy to use. I use it every day for my morning cup of milk. My daughter really likes it and insists on using it too.

Back again... Woof! It's been a crazy good fall for for me and the studio. It's been a juggling act just to keep all of the projects moving forward while keeping a thumb on correspondence.
I woke-up one morning in September and found-out that someone pinned and "Adult" badge on me while I slept. Now find myself temporarily in the role of an organizer and educator in my local ceramic arts community helping our local artist find there footing on-line. Mixed results so far though...
Nico, my 6 year old, shot this video last month and we edited it together... check this out.

How funny that you posted today. I was just thinking of you this morning while using my beautiful sugar bowl. Can't wait to see some new works from you!

Thanks! Hearing that really helped. I'm getting ready for a seasonal secret sale and any vote of confidence helps a lot.

Wow, Joel, that was awesome! My 10 year old, who wants to be an artist, was fascinated! And how cool that your 6 year old filmed it, he did an excellent job!

Thanks! It's a hoot when she yells "CUT" at the top of her lungs and repositions the camera... so serious.
