The results of my first raku firing - Sept. 2023
Clay lured me in by making things happen pretty smoothly - at first!

Feathers soar, the talons gleam,
Owls have taken the football scene!
Touchdowns? No, it's hoots we crave!
The #superbOwl is all the rave!
It's that wonderous time of year we celebrate owls!

From our first raku firing of the lunar New Year. Year of the Snake, the moonlight calls, Lunar new year, the old skin falls. Wisdom glows in earthen grace, A timeless path the stars embrace. #art #snake #raku #sciart #lunarnewyear
Ceres' Blessing
In hues of earth and sky it gleams,
A vessel born of whispered dreams.
Pink as dawn and blue as seas,
A gift from Ceres, meant to please.
Its curves embrace the fertile land,
Shaped gently by a goddess' hand.
A quiet tribute to life's grace,
Rooted deep in time and space.
The cracks and marks, a tale unfold,
Of cycles ancient, strong, and bold.
A blessing sealed in fire's embrace,
A cosmic charm, this sacred vase.
Final weekend of Joe Winter's pottery holiday open house. The drive up there was absolutely beautiful, and visiting his studio is always a treat. I can never get enough of the visual and tactile inputs.
