Yesterday we brought out all of our pottery for the Celebration of Seagrove Potters' Spring kiln openings. Here are some pictures we took in the early morning before the sheets became yellow with pollen. The pollen here is so thick this year, that when the wind blew it was like a dust storm. There were many visitors here in Seagrove enjoying the wonderful weather (despite all of the pollen) and all of the new work that the potters had out on display. We had quite a few cars here at Bulldog throughout the day. Spending days like yesterday, with enthusiastic and wonderful people is such a treat. We finished the day off by attending the Grand Opening of
ARTifex gallery and studio school in Troy. We had a great time there. Beverly and Chad Dickson did an incredible job of transforming the building into a vibrant gallery space and art studio classroom. She displayed a group of stunningly colorful, and richly textured variations of her Petroglyph series. This series is partially inspired by the
Judaculla Rock glyphs in Jackson County, NC. I think we will be visiting Troy again soon.

Everything looks great! Sounds like everybody had a great day.
HI Jenny, We had a great time yesterday! Thanks. Did you take any pictures yesterday of your work and the event?
I love the next to the last picture, the close up. Looks like bamboo to me.
I've put a few pictures up as I made things, but didn't take any photos! I always think of it too late. We met up with our friends Christi & Miles and visited a few shops in the afternoon. They came by yours earlier in the day!
love the surface on the close up pot, hope you had a great sale.
Everything looks great. I can't wait to come down for the Cousin's sale!
I LOVE your pottery. My parents visited Seagrove last year and bought a few of your pieces! How cool is that. I didn't know you had a blog. Love your gorgeous glazing techniques.
Thanks ! We are gearing back up and throwing more vases and looking forward to trying some more pieces like we did for this years AKAR Yunomi show.
