Wow, Cory,

Stunning!

And the photos - somehow super awesome - extra clear, super-vibrant. Whew!

thanks seeker.

i've discovered that higher resolution looks better. i usually resize the photo to 133 dpi, i left it nearly full sized and voila. i think they look better too

cheers

biidoro chawan

by bonjiri » Jul 8th, '09, 17:21

yo no bi

beauty in functionality... very important.

Image

this chawan leapt from my hands as i was loading it into the kiln

a crack mysteriously formed . keshiki.

i had otemae this morning. it doesn't leak. . .

working on a new series of chawan now, handbuilt pinch pots and carved. much like how raku kichizaemon creates his stunning chawan. i think the chawan has more amazing energy with all 'tezukuri'.

i am learning all the time.

Cory-san, (have I done that right?)

Yeahhhhh!

Yummmm!

Looks like the brother to dragon-eye.

Mouth-watering! Good thing I viewed this while sipping matcha from

leaping-keshiki's brother.

Quenched.

Ahhh.

Peace!

ok I have been drinking gyokuro all day and contemplating my beautiful chawan... What is so remarkable about it is that I can feel your hands as I hold it. Each discipline of art has a unique way of communicating with the viewer.. wheel thrown pottery, when done right, i think should express the hands of the potter. So that by holding the piece, one for a moment, has a physical connection to that artist, their physical being. Holding your chawan is like shaking your hand, and somehow you being able to focus my mind onto some beautiful idea you have created. It is absolutely fabolous and I treasure it! :)
