From A Different Angle
Tonight is the artist reception for a show called From A Different Angle at the art gallery in The 567 Center For Renewal in Macon, GA, which sounds like a pretty cool place. I intend to be there for the opening since a few of my pots are in the show, and on the advertising. I am always so honored and amazed when that happens.
You may be wondering why I hadn't mentioned this show much earlier. Clearly they knew I was going to be in the show since my pot and name are in the advertising. But I didn't. The email that was sent to tell me saying that I was accepted into the show was lost somewhere in cyberville. Thankfully Beth Smith, who curates the show called me a few days ago since she had not heard anything at all from me since I applied to have my pots in the show. I'm so glad she called, follow-up is a wonderful thing.
The covered jar in the picture is one of my pieces. It's made with Highwater's Orangestone clay. After being bisque fired I applied paper cutouts of maple leaves using a wax resist then glazed the pieces with two glazes for depth and interest. The glazed pieces were then fired to cone 6 in a gas reduction kiln. They are fully functional and are even dishwasher safe.
If you're in Macon tonight and are looking for something to do and some great art to admire tonight please come to the gallery and say "hi" to the other artists and me. I've checked out the websites for some of the other artists and they have some really great work.

Beautiful pot, I love working with Orangestone such a nice clay.
ReplyDeleteI have been lucky enough to be on a few postcards, and like you didn't even know about it, until the card came in the mail :-)
Congrats
Thanks Tracey, Orangestone is a great clay.
DeleteToes crossed for an excellent opening and show. It's too far for a visit, but I'll be with you virtually. I hope you will be able to post many photos.
