Trying to keep my head above water.......

as the rain keeps coming down.
It has rained here this week impossibly long. We had a brief reprieve yesterday. And then, I woke up to pouring rain this morning and my mood is matching this wet weather.
I have been working furiously on pieces for fall shows, the furniture market and orders......and this weekend I have my first show of the season. Hosted by Beth and Steve Feeback, this show is a fun, festive, colorful, whimsical show full of artists that truly step out of the box of traditional art. I am so happy to be included. (I will post pictures Sunday) If you are in the Concord, NC Saturday, please stop by and say hello.
In the mean time, here are some pictures of recent works:

Geometric Bottles

More bottles. These are hand built and larger than one might think. The tallest measures 18 inches. The form and the process are seducing me and I have now made 6 of these bottles. I need to move on to other things but apparently that is not going to happen. My desire for this form is still strong. Alas, you can't tell the muse what to do. She has her own mind.
