Carving trees and waiting for rain
This is a close up photo of a tree carving that I did on one of my flask vases that I made for the workshop. The transition between light and dark was created by the atmosphere of the wood kiln, … Continue reading

No Sunset on the Horizon
I woke up to the faint but unmistakable smell of wood smoke. I knew it couldn’t be a neighbor burning garbage or someone having a campfire, and nobody would be using a wood stove this time of year. As soon … Continue reading
