Tiny Tim on Ice...

The alarm goes off and I had been dreaming that I won the lead in my 8th grade play....Tiny Tim on Ice.  I got to wear white skates and swoop and dance and.....you get the idea :)  In reality, I can't skate...and I left 8th grade behind a long time ago!
I showed the making and firing of this teaset last week. Turned out so nicely, subtle blue checkerboard color under turquoise, that I made sugar bowl and creamer to match.....they are not fired yet, but I am glazing to match today....
have an awesome Tuesday!

(new pottery by Gary Rith...I went to town on that sugar bowl, didn't I)

    I love the modern (or is it post-post-modern?) style of your new mugs and the sugar creamer! Elegant!

    Well, Gary, I think your dreams have come true!
    Somehow, as nice and the tea set comes together, the video sort of puts a new "spin" on a lot of the Freudian imagery in your handles and spouts...
