I said in 2022: "I am the proud owner of two pieces of Charlie Tefft pottery." (His home page is ctpottery.com)
I found this neat video of him describing his process, Here.Charlie Teft made this mug and I bought it at a pottery show in Marshall NC. I then kept a eye out when he'd be included in shows. He lives in Summerfield NC. Unfortunately an accident in my kitchen demolished this mug.
I did purchase another of his mugs, the crow to remember a good friend of many years who loved all things corvid!
Wanting to have another cat mug, I was happy to find this one.
Not a great photo, but my last purchase was the otter, on left here in a years-gone-past-springtime photo!
Many more blog posts of ceramics by others are on my "art blog" Alchemy of Clay.
Today's quote:
Rebecca Solnit, “Hope is an embrace of the unknown and the unknowable, an alternative to [polarized certainties. . . .Hope] is the belief that what we do matters even though how and when it may matter, who and what it may impact, are not things we can know beforehand.”
Beautiful work and an interesting video. He talks about ash glazes, yet the glaze effect says soda or salt glaze to me!
ReplyDeleteA cute collection of mugs, I love all the critters. Take care, have a great weekend.
