First off thanks again to you all who sent me all the good feelings and words about my work and the junk I was struggling with. Thank goodness I'm not as affected by that voice in my head that tries to destroy me every so often. I've gotten better at just putting it out there and sure enough what happens is that I see what is True and what is False. Keeping it all in my head is not the way to go.
I got a bisque going today and cleaned up the studio for the Sale this weekend. I still have a long way to go getting the showroom all set up, but hopefully I'll knock a big dent in that tomorrow. I usually stop making during the week of my sale so I can focus on cleaning, firing, etc. But I'm having to carry on at least until Thursday. I made a couple boards of bowls today and will get some little dishes and teapots made tomorrow. Pics tomorrow.
Someone sent me this link to a Pete Pinnell video where he is discussing cups. It's worth a look, about 30 minutes long.
Hope everyone is off to a good start this week.
All the best, Ron
