What's Happening

The Creatures of the Night Exhibition at MudFire Gallery opens this Saturday, Aug. 6th.  There is some really cool work in this show.  You can click HERE to see the preview.  The show will be online and pots for sale online so no matter where you are you can participate.  MudFire has really kicked it up a notch with their new website.  Check in there often!


I've been invited to quite a few shows over the next few months and into next year.  I have to say I'm really happy to be getting my work out there more.  Also, whenever I am invited to and exhibition or show it pushes me to come up with new ideas or to fine tune some of the work that I have been doing.  For the Creatures show I came up with some really cool bat imagery.


I sold both of the rectangular boxes in the past two weeks.



I am happy to know that I can work at this scale and put a good amount of effort into these sorts of pots and get paid what I ask.  Living here in 'big pot' country NC I've felt like I have to make bigger scale work to command any attention or to have more expensive 'show' pieces.  Of course that's just a notion of my own that I've created.  So it's important for me to see that I can do what I want and move past that notion.

Last week I sent out an email letting folks know about all the new work in my Etsy shop.  That created a little bit of a buying frenzy which was nice.  If you'd like to receive emails please sign up in the right hand side bar. Thanks!!

Hope everyone is having a good week so far.  Thanks for checking in.  ~Ron

 

Announcements and Video #2

I want to let you all know that I now have some pots at Mudfire Gallery in Decatur, Ga.  Only a small selection presently but hopefully I'll have more there in the future.

Also, my work will be available at the Rivercross Market in Valle Crusis, NC when they open this month.  Hopefully there will be more info on their website soon.

And finally I've been asked to participate this year in the Lillstreet Holiday Sale.  I'll be sending them 20 pots in November.  I am very excited to be part of this event.

Speaking of Lillstreet Art Center, the 3rd Lillstreet International exhibition is online.  The exhibition is entitled Bowl Me Over and I have two pieces in the show.  Click HERE to view.

Tomorrow, Friday Aug. 2oth, I am going to announce a CONTEST.

Here is another video of cutting a foot, this time a little bit bigger bowl and taller foot.  Enjoy.
