Gary Jackson: Fire When Ready Pottery
A Chicago potter’s somewhat slanted view of clay & play
Categories: pottery, production

Okay… so my next art fair is just over a week way. And I of course, once again,
am trying to crank out some last minute pieces. Now I don’t have time for both high-fire
bisque and glaze firings… so I’m going with a once-fired terra cotta approach! Not that I
need more work after last week’s glaze firing. But I tend to always put this sort of last-minute
pressure on myself for some reason?! Not sure why???… and not quite sure what these
little cylinders will turn into. I have a festive holiday plan… three different shapes,
three different ideas! So we’ll see what happens…
