I’m setting up my tent again this weekend… packed with plenty of pots… for the GLENVIEW SUMMER ART FAIR!!! On the grounds of Lyons School in Glenview, Illinois on the corner of Lake & Waukegan Roads. We’ll be there from 11:00am-5:00pm rain or shine… of course we’re all hoping for shine!!!

Just a little carving with my favorite tool from DiamondCore Tools! Another bowl from last week’s class demo… now carving patterns through ombré blended slips. More is more… right???

Last night in class we tried the newest flavor… well, kinda… the bag says it’s “Back By Popular Demand.” Anyway… pretty tasty if you can get past the overly saturated navy blue color of the filling??? We all thought they tasted kinda like PopTarts… and that’s not a bad thing!!!

Thanks to Kathy for finding these new… errr, I mean “blue” taste treats!!!

Another week of Summer Camp!!!
Wheelthrowing with another fun group of pre-teens!
Looks like they’re off to a good start!

Another bowl in need of some more carving. I mean, there was a solid band of slip screamin’ out for a little sumthin’-sumthin’!!! So I did a bit more carving here too… after camp & before class tonight!

A quiet & hazy morning ride with a bit of a chill in the air. With a low-flying “marine layer” of haze on the horizon, it took awhile for the sun to finally appear… but when it did, the shimmering reflections were well worth the wait!

Just a little early morning stamping session in the studio. Adding a bit more detail & texture to my already “not-so-basic” bowls from last week’s class demo! You know my motto… MORE IS MORE!!!

Quiet skies & shimmering reflections. Another beautiful morning along the lakefront… perfect for a quiet morning bike ride.

Colorful lilies in the garden to brighten your day.

Looks like it’s the start of a “berry” good day… with Kristy picking some fresh berries from her yard with her favorite “berry-picking bowl.”
