"The chief source of art is man's pleasure in his daily work, which expresses itself and is embodied in that art itself."

Three Firings Running
With our departure pending, here is a quick look at three firings. Our last one is going on now. It will be tough to get everything into the car. We are headed for the Des Moines Arts Festival June 22-24, the Cherry Creek Arts Festival in Denver July 5-8 and the Ann Arbor Street Art Fair, the Original July 18-21....big plans!
A Visual Feast of Landscapes 2012
At long last, the landscapes are finished with exception of the large bowl which is in the firing now.
Here are the results!!
I am pleased......... these are so much fun to make and of course, it has something to do with the fact that I don't make them very often and they are very individual designs.

Getting Ready
We are getting ready for THE big trip this year. We have never ever
done three consecutive art fairs on the road. Why we are attempting this
feat in 2012 is because times have changed. Have you noticed? Since the
economic meltdown, the small galleries have not returned therefore our
wholesale business has gone south and not just for us... for all
craftspeople. The result is that more and more high quality crafts are
showing up at retail shows. That's good news for you but it throws us
into a competitive spin.
And spinning we are................. Will we have what you want?
