While I discovered <a href="http://www.theclaystudio.org/exhibition/sue-tirrell" target="_blank">Sue Tirrells</a> work a while ago and met her in person last year
in Montana, you may have not seen her work. This woman knows how to
make a pot that really works well. Perfect cups and plates that hold
food like a professional. Her imagery appears at first to be just pretty farm animals but quickly you realize that there is an <a href="http://www.theclaystudio.org/shop/index.php?id=5341" target="_blank">axe behind that chicken</a> and there is a <a href="http://www.theclaystudio.org/shop/index.php?id=5341" target="_blank">wolf waiting to eat that rabbit</a>! I guess living and working in Montana makes it hard to ignore the realities of nature. </div>

The is a history to each of these objects that comes from the maker, and then there is the history and story of the collector. I have been lucky enough to visit a few homes with impressive collections and and what I usually enjoy the most is listening to the story of how the piece was acquired. Couples that collect together are especially dear as each acquisition is a moment in their relationship, part of their collective history.<br />

This couple were enjoying their ice cream under a great light made by an OSU glass artist.

This means the house will take longer than expected, but also that you will get first look at all the amazing shows and beautiful work in the shop. I am jumping head first into revamping the Studios <a href="http://www.theclaystudio.org/shop/">online shop</a> so stay tuned to this page.<br />

This months show is an absolute gem, Mollys work is just lovely and other people think so too.....<br />

I was brought up in an ex-mining community in the South Wales Valleys where life was often driven by hard labour and there was little time for celebration. Therefore I am drawn to objects, which remind me of special occasions, for instance the bone china tea set which suggests pleasure and refinement. I contrast the beautiful bone china object (cup) against the ritual of domestic chores, cleaning and bleaching, suggesting that the act of refinement is often followed by a gritty reality."</i></div>Naomi Clearyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05496516189427865794noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945102822273968603.post-90349415385670677262010-02-08T20:15:00.005-06:002010-02-15T20:28:15.032-06:00A Good Look - Lighting<div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The city is pretty much shut down and I don't have to go to work! No <a href="http://www.theclaystudio.org/" target="_blank">Clay Studio</a> for me today and certainly no <a href="http://www.theclaystudio.org/events/nceca/" target="_blank">NCECA</a> planning (sorry). You all know that I am working at The Clay studio as the <a href="http://www.theclaystudio.org/events/nceca/" target="_blank">NCECA</a> Coordinator right. It is my very real excuse for not having posted regularly in the last few months. It is also the reason my house is getting fixed very very slowly. I am knee deep in 100 exhibitions but my own life is very much on hold.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOunKmn4FXcA6XZEh4XPcoayi4E8aBpQdfBYm5jjsiIgCopd-HEoK4qxOa0IEmaWVHQx03IoC5gX85AyPBt9KDRX3RbhcFjd5CZVvN1RWkBxMEoQ27LIOICM2iKwdmGd_zwmGjTBM8aZg/s1600-h/IMG_0015.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOunKmn4FXcA6XZEh4XPcoayi4E8aBpQdfBYm5jjsiIgCopd-HEoK4qxOa0IEmaWVHQx03IoC5gX85AyPBt9KDRX3RbhcFjd5CZVvN1RWkBxMEoQ27LIOICM2iKwdmGd_zwmGjTBM8aZg/s320/IMG_0015.JPG" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Winter View of 27th Street </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEih6WqWZwbKJ76TtBGzc36kDEilszjUhHLwnHmGeHeTa6sNmjoqn42MW0TK4KxZW2CWr-g78f8tPq6kMdtoXCV9DEN4Vn14N0-eILlJ9ha7dDvSGR3JNHK3OaFFTRhRNSQnls7AQ8mvQ6A/s1600-h/IMG_0018.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEih6WqWZwbKJ76TtBGzc36kDEilszjUhHLwnHmGeHeTa6sNmjoqn42MW0TK4KxZW2CWr-g78f8tPq6kMdtoXCV9DEN4Vn14N0-eILlJ9ha7dDvSGR3JNHK3OaFFTRhRNSQnls7AQ8mvQ6A/s320/IMG_0018.JPG" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Very snowy back yard, hard to imagine ever using the grill again.....oh spring time </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaXwoFGQ5qcH-8KQ0ohEBJOESv0J2l7m2yDIZOML-lgvfjEbxD9zR0YI9SQCvoojLO2UdgXTT1KiRU97kkJR2ZawjpIFKPdotygi8VOuyDMnS88AKdP9QJB82p4oaKlaxjxv5RehqB7ow/s1600-h/IMG_0003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"> </a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaXwoFGQ5qcH-8KQ0ohEBJOESv0J2l7m2yDIZOML-lgvfjEbxD9zR0YI9SQCvoojLO2UdgXTT1KiRU97kkJR2ZawjpIFKPdotygi8VOuyDMnS88AKdP9QJB82p4oaKlaxjxv5RehqB7ow/s1600-h/IMG_0003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaXwoFGQ5qcH-8KQ0ohEBJOESv0J2l7m2yDIZOML-lgvfjEbxD9zR0YI9SQCvoojLO2UdgXTT1KiRU97kkJR2ZawjpIFKPdotygi8VOuyDMnS88AKdP9QJB82p4oaKlaxjxv5RehqB7ow/s320/IMG_0003.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Hazel and Buster.....best friends for ever </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Thankfully my good friends <a href="http://www.rob-sutherland.com/" target="_blank">Rob Sutherland</a> and Kathy Hurchla live right across the street and invited me over for a warm and snuggly snow day. They have a wonderful wood stove and the dogs are very happy. Rob and Kathy have renovated three buildings on my block and are working on two more. They have been so generous with me since I bought my house (soon to be home), cooking me dinner, letting me stay for a few weeks before my house was inhabitable and being amazing resources for everything related to house fixing.</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWr6MQziejlIon1V6gGam1SLpbC_zLjAUwZgSaxgSy7uBC0XVJ24CPGdVJIXFN42F0Wxjt9dmXx7IU969yE1y-v2_quXJ8q2X03ox7_439H05Mm9zuwV-BzsILfDSMx3DzZlojvMj68Ko/s1600-h/IMG_0009.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWr6MQziejlIon1V6gGam1SLpbC_zLjAUwZgSaxgSy7uBC0XVJ24CPGdVJIXFN42F0Wxjt9dmXx7IU969yE1y-v2_quXJ8q2X03ox7_439H05Mm9zuwV-BzsILfDSMx3DzZlojvMj68Ko/s320/IMG_0009.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="http://www.akardesign.com/creators/profile.asp?iCreatorID=35&iCategoryID=4&iCreatorType=1" target="_blank">Matt Metz</a> Teapot, <a href="http://www.theclaystudio.org/shop/index.php?artist=19" target="_blank">Rob Sutherland</a> mug and <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/member/views/CREAMY-CORN-CASSEROLE-1212192" target="_blank">Corn Casserole</a> by the lovely Kathy Hurchla </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So we are staying warm.......learning how to use our new IPhones, so lame I know but Rob and I both got them this week.
