I am delighted to report that these two sets of my cups were accepted in the University of Missouri’s Twin Cups Exhibition.

I just fired the kiln Sunday with a load of oval vases. My hopes were to get a number of them for photographic transfers. The perverse thing is that I don’t want so much carbon on them (so that they have space for the images), and they are a wonderful shape for trapping carbon.  I got maybe 8 from the batch that will work.

Like many I am looking forward to warm weather and less hardship in getting out to the pottery studio. I can’t get water out there when the weather is below freezing. It’s hard to keep a studio halfway clean without ready water. a good excuse though to be lazy.
