I am not attending NCECA this year but I'm sending these three bright poppy pieces to Pittsburgh to brighten up the winter landscape. If you are going, please check out this fun sounding party and show. I am honored to be showing in the company of some of my pottery heroes. Check out Heesoo Lee's impossibly beautiful Aspen pieces, Birdie Boone's wonderful round bottom cups, Ben Carter's delicate red clay teapots and of course my talented Bay Area pottery posse's (Christa, Sara, Whitney, Diana) brilliant work. It almost makes me want to strap on my snow boots, drag out my down jacket and get my butt to Pittsburgh (almost... but not quite) !
