I am excited to show my photographs of my Pots with Flowers at the Lebanon Picture Frame and Fine Art Gallery in our show Fired UP!

Our show Fired Up! A Celebration of Wood-Fired Ceramics and Friendship is almost here! I love arranging flowers in my pots - bringing a little piece of the universe inside to enjoy. I am excited to exhibit my photographs of them for the first time.

Join me, Joanne Cassaro, Sue Baldwin-Way, Lois Wilkins and our guests Kevin Lehman and Salvatore Annunziato on opening night (December 6th) as we celebrate our ceramic work. The show will be up for the months of December and January. For more info. about the show click this link.

Strictly Functional Pottery National

I am so happy and excited to have this piece accepted into the Strictly Functional Pottery National (SFPN). This is the 32nd year of this wonderful show juried by David MacDonald. Although this show is local -at the Lancaster Museum of Art it is a national show attracting ceramic artists from all over the country and for the last couple of years, beyond. I am so honored to get in!

Because this show takes place near me I have had the opportunity to help with various aspects over the years, from unpacking and packing up the pots to helping with editing the catalog and in the past sitting the show and even dusting. Being involved, for me, has been a wonderful way to get to know the work a little better. I am grateful for this opportunity provided by Jean Lehman who directed the show for 17 years, and to the present co directors Kevin Lehman and Amy Burk.

I can’t wait to see all the work in person! I hope you can make it too. The opening night is September 27 from 5-8 PM and the show is up until November 9. The website for the SFPN is www.strictlyfunctionalpottery.net
