Even after making pots for 30 years it takes some practice to duplicate a shape for someone else. These shapes are pretty simple, but simple is never as simple as one thinks.
It still takes some skill to hit the shape right on for the customer.
Ah- rebellion- I see a carved vase there..
Double dog dare me?

Less is more! I like the shapes a lot, just get some juicy glazes on them, they will be fine!
Nice to see new work still coming out of that studio. Happy holidays, guys. Thanks for continuing the blogging.
Hi you two- gosh to be in the same room with you both- things are shaping up over here. More to come about this later.
Love those tall vases. Gonna be beauties! (I totally understand your impulse to carve!)
NICE POTS ! I would have to be handcuffed to be kept from altering them!
multiple glazes or firing changes can alter their appearance too, looking forward to whats up next.
Mmmmmm... pots in the raw!! Always so interesting to be able to compare one with another and to see what a slight difference in lift or droop of the middle, or the shoulders, or narrowing or thickening of the foot makes... and it is so subtle.
Can I ask what sort of height the tall vases are? It is often a little hard to tell from photos.
Hey Peter - The tallest narrow vases were 17- 1/2".....
