  1. The sky is falling! The sky is falling!

  2. We've been firing the kiln nightly lately as we prep for our first markets.

    I guess we'll find out then if our stuff has any favor with the general public.

  3. The longer I'm here, the more I learn that I'll never be a good potter...

    not that I was trying. That is "their" standard...which means nothing to me.

    Whose standards do you live by?

    Thanks for stoppin in.

  4. It's all about the quality of the instructor. Your experience mirrors ours, scoobie. We were just turned loose on the wheel and then given tips as we went along. I was fortunate that I (was told) have a knack for the wheel and was able to catch on fairly quickly...but other folks in the class struggled quite a bit with the lack of true direction and scant guidance given. good luck...and have fun. teardrop
  5. I slab roll my clay and then cut out the peices using patterns I drew...then assemble them. I try to do >something

  6. I love your pitchers glazed with the Potter's Choice glazes! Did you throw those, extrude them, or what? Very nice!

  7. Don't know who's screwing with your head, but every time I'm online and check out the forums, I look for red. Then I click green--even if I don't know a person. Everone is allowed three clicks a day. Shouldn't be difficult to get to green and hold it.

  8. Whoa!

    That's very red! Who did you piss off>

    TJR.

    I WILL GO BACK AND GIVE YOU A GREEN ONE.

  9. As always.....the good folks here make up for those who are quick to critique others whom they don't know.

  10. Cowards, WUVIE. They are straight up cowards.

  11. I simply do not understand the negative reputation thing on this site. Seriously, if a person can't back up what they say, their comments aren't worth spit. Much like the internet that is awash with people judging and criticizing others, yet are they willing to put a face with a name? Pfft. I agree with you. Back it up or shut it up.

    Very nice. Love the glaze. You have a very sweet op, Mark!
  13. I enjoy your take on the production side of all of this and the way your overall LOVE of what you do shines through in your posts.

    best of luck with the wrist as well..

  14. Thanks Marcia. The old one is a pic of the top of a hiking staff...a face carved in wood. The new one is a handblown glass marble my late son made in an Italian glassblowing style called "reticello".
