1st piece made for this late spring, early summer wood firing. I’m going to focus on larger ornamental pieces for this firing. This large oval bowl is slab built which is something I’m trying to do more of, hope you like it!

I probably haven’t shared this on social media, but I retired from my 25 year career in cabinet manufacturing on March 6th. I recently turned my office into a gallery so if you live near Jasper, Indiana, and would like to see my work, please stop by. You can find my link in my bio for both my address and my Etsy account.
