Angel





It took a village to create this angel.  The Pottery Community is filled with incredibly generous people.  I am grateful to several individuals who helped me with this new project:   Kris, who taught the original class * Gail and Angela, who taught me how to make the angel * Emily, who helped me with the Raku-ing * Carol, who reminded me of health safeguards during firing and helped pack the angel for transport, and * Awesome Instructor Marianne, who provided so much guidance and help throughout the entire process, including braving the heat of the kiln.  Truly, these potters are angels in my life.

Twisted Pots


These pots were fascinating to create.  Consistent with my intolerance for merry-go-rounds, I felt dizzy while making them, though.

Coffee Break, Swedish Style






When my sister and family, who live in Sweden, were here recently, we enjoyed the traditional "Fikas" -- coffee breaks -- with strong coffee and goodies . . . each having a different mug and plate set.






I guess the person with this set gets twice as many goodies.
