Vases, Plates, and Cups

I convinced Krystal to join me in the studio for an hour or so last night. Finished up a couple vase or two and threw some more plates for the upcoming Fundraiser. Here's the details on that event:

Potters' Palette: Flavors Around the World
Saturday, June 20, 2009 ~ 5:00 - 9:00 PM ~ Ticket Price: $60
Ticket will include your choice of an appetizer plate to be used over the evening, plus an art piece of your choosing valued at least $40.* The evening will feature gourmet appetizers and a guided wine tasting. Additional beverages and clay tumblers/cups will be available for purchase. To order tickets, call 970.204.4809
*Selection order will be drawn at random - the right to the first 5 picks will be auctioned off*

But enough about that. Here's some pictures taken in the studio last night. There was also a bisque being unloaded, so I'll have more stuff to glaze soon. I've got about 20 pieces that need to be glazed, and I'm sure I'll get around to it eventually, but it's not my favorite thing to do. So, some pictures.

Vases. 10-12 inches tall.

Hey look - I got a haircut. And that's clay on my arm, not leprosy. Checking out my signature on the bottom of that vase. "Yup, looks like I spelled it right!"

Fundraiser plates - I'm pleased. I like the blue in that plate on the right.

Fundraiser cups. I made them to match the plates, but it turns out we're selling these inside at an additional cost. If you buy a clay cup that night, you'll get a complimentary refill of wine or beer of your choice. They also make great toothbrush holders...

That's it for now. I'll be out of the studio, most likely, until next Tuesday or so. We'll see what happens. In the meantime, have safe and happy Memorial Day Weekend!
