Show piece

Filed under: Ceramics, Shows

This is the piece I’m entering in the Prelude to Open Studios show. This show allows Open Studios participating artists to show one piece each at the Coconino Center for the Arts.

The opening reception is Saturday, August 13, I believe 6-9 p.m. I’m working the show that night. The show runs August 16 through September 10, Tues-Sat, 11-5.

Details on the piece - it’s a stoneware platter, made from a creamy-colored high fired stoneware clay. It measures about 13″ in diameter and stands about 2″ high from rim to tabletop. The center of the platter, inside the rim, is about an inch deep.

I’m not wigging out about the show or Open Studios. Nope, nuh-uh, not me. I’m feeling perfectly normal… see?

Flagstaff Open Studios - a month away

Filed under: Ceramics, Shows, Z House

Flagstaff Open Studios is a month away! Yikes, that is right around the corner!

The brochure can be found here. I am stop #21.

I’m working on a postcard to send out to folks and to post here. Also, I am going to be the August featured artist in two local publications - The Noise and the ACF Newsletter. Exciting! (I shall post links to both articles once they’re published!)

As for the studio, well - check it out! It has new siding and is ready for its new rolling door! It is getting wired in a week and after that I’ll be having the door installed and moving into it. I’m so excited I could squeal.

New floor, new door (opening)!

New floor, new door (opening)!

Final holiday orders

I’m finishing up the last of the holiday orders, jammin’ to get everything finished by December 18th. 30 chunks of clay, 30 pots or parts thereof.

The show at St. Pius was a lot of fun and sales were decent. :-)  Thanks again to everybody who visited my table! I think I’ve got this display stuff down (another crummy cell phone shot).

I’d like to extend a huge THANK YOU to all who came out to see me at the Mountain Campus Holiday Fair. It was great to see you and I truly appreciate your support!


(Pardon the crummy cell phone shot - I forgot to take my camera)

My next show will be December 4th at the St Pius church, located at the corner of Fourth and Cedar Street in Flagstaff. The show runs from 8:00-3:00. Stop by to say hello if you are out and about. :-)

Fantastic First Friday

Filed under: Ceramics, Shows

We had a wonderful turnout for the First Friday Art Walk. The CSA was packed wall to wall the entire night! We had a plethora of delicious food inside and out, samba drums and live bands out front, and a lot of great artwork on display. It was great fun to tell people about the CSA and raise awareness of this wonderful local resource.

I am especially grateful to the folks who stopped by my table and talked ceramics with me. Thank you for admiring my work, asking questions, and telling me about your favorite mugs. Thank you for restoring my self-confidence and reminding me of how much I love to watch a person pick up a pot, feel its weight and the texture of the glaze, examine the colors. Thank you for the reminder that we all have unique tastes in size, style, and color. And, thank you for loving the new fish pieces! I hope those of you who took them home will enjoy them for years to come. :-)
