Announcements and Video #2
Thursday, August 19, 2010 at 7:18PM
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.

well done rondalf, you should be a teacher. i'm glad to see someone else who is concerned with the foot-to-bowl relationship rather than letting it be an afterthought. it's one of my favorite things to harp on during critiques.
coolies....it's friday ron...:))
More shops carring your work, well done, that's great. I'll watch the video later in the am, thanks for posting these videos Ron.
your work is everywhere! congrats!
I'm still craving for a clothesline mug but I'm afraid the shipping costs will scare me! :-)
Love the video & agree the foot should not be an afterthought! Congrats on all the gallery representation. I've been to Mudfire & their shows & gallery are really wonderful!
I have a question for you --- when you apply your slip -- it's at leatherhard - right? Then do you let the piece (slip) dry before carving your designs? or do you work wet -- and if so how do you eliminate the burrs without disturbing your drawing?
Thanks Brandon. I do miss teaching.
Judy, Right, slip at leatherhard.
I used to do the drawing at the leatherhard state, that's how we did it at Penland too, with Ayumi. Let the pot dry and the blast the burrs off with an airhose/compessor. I would rub the pot too or use a brush at the same time as the air hose.
Now I draw at the bone dry stage. That way I can make the pots and draw when I feel like it (I'm not always in the mood to decorate). There are no burrs this way, but I still blast with the airhose to get rid of dust.
Thanks everyone for the comments. Monique, you can let me know your address and I can calculate shipping cost. Just so you'd have an idea. :-)
Great tips Ron -- thanks!
