The pots have anomalous creatures created with gestural emphasis to accentuate their presence. The pots and paintings express my attempt to explore the nature of play in making things authentically and creatively. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Art of Play, new book.

So much clay—so little time. Monday, October 24, 2011. Firing #105, first look. 100 hours of firing we un-bricked the door and began unloading. This shot is the third stacking and you can see Alice's tea pot on the top shelf (left). There were pots from three colleges and two high schools as well as the professional contingent regulars. This was one of our best firings—even all the way from fron to back with Cone 12 flat! Links to this post. Alice's Tea Pot from Wonderland. Links to this post. I work cha...

Nils Lou: February 2011
http://nilslou.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
So much clay—so little time. Friday, February 11, 2011. I've had this core sample for years knowing I would ultimately find a home for it. It was cored from a brick wall for some purpose, but now rests on a curved part of this chunk of clay fired in Jim Busby's Caboose kiln. Woodfired to C12 in 40 hours. The "core" is removable for use as a doorstop. Links to this post. ROUGHLY 14 BY 8. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Art of Play, new book. Women of the west hills. View my complete profile.
