Shop-ping Today

Monkey sculpture by Jim.
Every time I go into the shop he has climbed onto someplace
different that the last place I saw him...

He will go onto an elephant sculpture that Jim made awhile ago.
The monkey will be holding an umbrella to keep the water off his head
from the elephant's fountain feature. 

Making a Chocolate Tree Leaf Mold.

Jim pours in potter's plaster onto leaf,
a bit different than plaster of paris.
Once the mold hardens up I can make
a porcelain serving dish from the mold, or 2.
Want one?

A Wonderful Find

We took on the job of emptying a friends storage barn
 and found this frame tucked deep into spider webs.
Jim put a seat and backing slats on- then refinished the woodwork.
Stunning! Now off to the fabric store to decide
on a design, texture, color,
hummm any suggestions? 

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!

Purina Blue Heron Chow for Thanksgiving,
wonder if this guy planned it right?

Frosty Morning Mug

Any Friskies and warm milk in there?

Livin' the Life-
much better than being a barn kitty!

Isn't she Purrdy?

Friday Evening

Spending fun time in the shop
on a very cold November evening.

Jimmy designed a quick and easy paint booth,
note the fan behind the cardboard box.

All I Want for Christmas

A Potters Wheel.
Jim is using a unique set-up to turn his pottery
 piece, an electric drill with a saw blade
as the wheel.

Complete with foot pedal.
It works!

A master craftsman at work.

Sunday Art Show

I love the red in the Cobalt bowl Jim made.
The Facepot seems spooky,
good time of year to present this piece.

Turtle table is ready to be used
for that mug of hot cider and pumpkin pie plate!

Ghost Circle

Something is Brewing in the Neighborhood.....

Concrete Leaf Workshop

We had a concrete leaf making workshop
before the frost killed all my giant Elephant Ear Leaves.
Everyone had fun and went home with a pretty concrete leaf.
