Making Some Progress

Okay, don't pass out.  Two blog posts in one week!  
Yesterday I had a reporter come out from The Thompson Report to do an interview with me and shoot some video.  The Thompson Report is a local news website that covers people, events, etc in Cleveland and Rutherford counties.  It was really great to sit down and talk about how I got started making pots and tell why it's so important to me.  Honestly, it was sort of emotional because haven't talked about that too much of late and it just felt good to say it all and share my love of making pots.  I'm not sure when the story will air on their website but I'll let ya know.  We did an impromptu Facebook Live video that you can watch on their FB page.  The quality isn't great due to a weak connection in my studio. 

Today I finished off the pots I made earlier in the week.

I had a little turtle factory going on as well.

I threw a few faceted yunomi and some pitchers to finish off the day.  The yunomi will get footed tomorrow and the pitchers will get their handles.  Then I have to pack up pots because I'll be heading up to Blowing Rock, NC bright and early on Saturday morning to do the Art in the Park show.
