Not Enough Hours In The Day

Y'all, it is a real struggle.  I haven't posted here since two weeks before Mother's Day.  I also don't think I've spent more than a few hours total in the studio since that time either.  There has just been too much going on! 

Here are some pictures of things.

This is a casserole that I showed pictures of while I was working on it.  This is at Buffalo Creek Gallery now.  

A vase that is kind of interesting.

I kind of like vases in neutral colors.  That way the flowers that you put in it are what you focus on.  This could also be a utensil holder.  This is not at either gallery right now.  If you are interested in seeing this in person, let me know.  I will make that happen.

I made this platter several months ago, but just found this picture.  I think it turned out pretty nice.  This is also available at Buffalo Creek Gallery.

Yesterday I realized that I am almost out of mugs again!  There are still several at Buffalo Creek Gallery, but I think there is only one at A Griffin Pottery right now that has a handle.  (There are lots of cups without handles though!)  

I have these 8 plus 8 more that are ready to be glazed, so I will be able to restock mugs soon.

I made these bowls a few weeks ago.  It was probably the only Saturday that I've been working in the studio since early May.

It was really hot that day, so I got them dry enough to trim the same day!  These are also ready to glaze.

Today is the last day of May.  I am off in the morning to go grade AP Calculus Exams for a week.  I always feel like summer doesn't really start until I get back from grading exams.  This year, I'll have a week at home and then we head out for our family vacation.  I guess the reason I'm telling you all this is to let you know that I'm still not going to be around to do pottery much for the next few weeks. 

It would make things so much easier for me if I could figure out how to be in two places at once.
