Pitcher Night





With Breeze supervising, I spent last night working on some pitchers -- trying to get caught up with things I'd sold faster than expected between etsy and the North Carolina show. I love making pitchers. Especially when things is workin' ...and they was workin' last night.

I aim for a sense of volume, a true, extremely simple shape, and a distinctive rim and spout unit. This one is in Coleman porcelain. I just got the handle on it...



These two are stoneware. I'll use my bisque leaf stamp on them later today (they've been under plastic overnight and are still pretty sticky)...



Here's a row of porcelain ones...

Then I woke up this morning and logged onto the internet, only to find out that Michael Kline over at the Sawdust & Dirt blogsite and pottery was working on pitchers too...


Well...
