A Potter and His Clay.
Long exhale.
Boxes upon boxes of ceramics have been unpacked, priced and displayed. Four years of ceramics, to be more exact.
I watched as my dad carefully inspected each one, explaining to me the special glaze he used. I heard terms like "wabi-sabi" and a technique called "chattering" that produced a jagged but beautiful texture on the outside of the pot. This isn't Crate and Barrel. There are no matching 'sets.' Each was uniquely crafted... formed, shaped and glazed as his hands and his heart felt inspired.
My dad is soulful, real, authentic and true. And so is his work.
Hope to see you at their house from 9-3pm tomorrow...
