From text to Texture...

After having spent the bulk of my free time in July and August working on the Hilton Homeplace Cookbook I decided I have no desire to ever become an editor...I am so sick of looking at text on a computer screen I couldn't imagine doing it for a living...I also have a new appreciation for all those English teachers out there making 25K a year and doing this for the grammatically challenged future of our country...

Nevertheless, having finished the final, final draft of the Hilton Homeplace Cookbook it was time to get back into the clay (otherwise I will have NOTHING to show in October at the sale)  Feeling a little artsy I thought I would play around with a few things using textures to detail the insides of pieces.  I'm hoping the glaze will break over the edges and create a depth and dimension to the pottery. 

We are only a few weeks away from the show, so fingers crossed these survive the firing.  Not sure if I have mentioned this before, but the kiln is the enemy...
