Buttons

These are a few buttons selected out of a box full of old buttons, a lifetime collection that Meir's mom gave us. We had fun digging in the box. Ill probably try and use them as imprints in the clay.



My Favorite Notepad

These days I am busy relocating my studio & sales have been low than expected.
When I begin to feel 'blue' I take out this notepad – It always makes me smile.

Sunny Weather

The last few days were worm and sunny, helping me dry the pots and make progress, but I am happy this morning it started to rain.

New Stamps

My signature stamp has broken up. These are two new ones. They last me about a year and a half before I have to change them.

Old Pots From Metzada

Seeing these pots made by local potters about 1900 years ago (!!!) was fascinating. They were used for storage and for daily use in Judea desert on mount Metzada. I can still see the finger marks of the potter!! it also reminded me the importance of function & simplicity in pottery.
