My friend Steve Palmer came by to take some photos for the Artisans Studio Tour which will take place November 11 & 12, 2017. My new studio will be on the Tour, although it’s not clear whether we will have moved in yet or if Studio #10 on the Tour will take in a late-stage construction site.
I’ll be joined by Jan Elmore, who will be showing her mirror frames and mixed-media wall sculpture. I’ll have pots from the first firings in my new kiln, including some of these that Steve caught as I was glazing them and putting them in the kiln.
Carter refers to this style of mug as my corrugated trash can series
- Steve didn’t take this photo (his would have been much nicer!) but here are some of the mugs from the firing.
- Most of the pots were sprayed with blue/grey glazes.
I love Steve’s shot of the cone pads from my first firings. Pyrometric cones melt at specific temperatures. Potters use them to tell how hot it is in the kiln.
