Mug Season

Every year Central Maine Clay Artists, a group of potters and clay artist donate our beautiful and diverse handmade mugs to coffee shops in the surrounding area. The mugs are sold, with the coffee include for $15 each. We use this money to help support area art programs whether they be in the schools or community. This year is the fifth year of our Mug Season. The coffee shops participating this year are
A-1 to Go in Gardiner, Issamacs in Farmingdale, Slates in Hallowell, Bagel Mainea and Bay Wrap in Augusta and Ye Old Post Office Cafe in Mt. Vernon.
Remember
"Its not the coffee, its the cup"

Spring is Here!!!!!

Today is the last day of March. We are suppose to have unseasonable warm weather starting tomorrow. YEAH. I have been making and decorating pottery. I have recovered well and am looking so forward to a working again.

I will be working in the studio on a regular basis, mostly in the mornings as this is the best time of day for me. I have one firing under my belt since my medical adventure. I was worried about throwing as the spinning of the wheel could have had my "head spinning", but this did not seem to be a problem. I am so thankful to be back at work. Production pottery is a task where one has to love making the same form over and over. This I do, and am so happy to be working and creating something I love to do.

I am mostly selling to galleries and shops at this time of year. I will be doing shows this summer and will have my show schedule on my web site in the near future.

Otherwise my studio is open. Call if you would like to come over.

Feb. 2110

It is just about mid Feb. I have been very busy in a strange kind of way. Brain Surgery for one thing. This has really made me come to grips. Life is so very special and now I realize what it means to "Enjoy every sandwich." Looking forward to the upcoming year. I am currently been appointed as Regional Coordinator for The Kennebec County Area for Maine Crafts Association. I hope to have a get together/get to know soon. I have some post operatation check ups in mid March. Soon come after that.
Life is Good, Bless us All!!!!
