Summer 2008 Komuri anagama firing at Jack's

Here are some images taken during a daytime shift at Jack Troy's
anagama, Komuri. They are some pretty quality photos. Have a look.

Iris Film Festival and Drobnock.

I had the opportunity to design the new logo for the Iris Film Festival.

(http://www.irisfilmfestival.org/Iris FF Home.html)

Keep an eye on their site for a supposed update using the new design.


The dates for the festival are September 18 - 19th, that's a Friday and Saturday, 2009.

By that point you should be able to get your hands on some festival shwag to proudly display the new logo to your now jealous friends.

Juniata Ceramic's Studio Adult Class and Me.

For the last couple of weeks I have been 'enrolled' in a ceramics class for community people at the college ( http://www.juniata.edu/). Its pretty much set up to allow anyone who is interested in clay outside the of the enrolled students, although I guess they could take it too. It has given me a structured studio space to work in while my equipment is all over the place.

Great news on top of that...

The college is having its spring anagama firing in early April!
I will have many photos of that whole process and the finished wares that come out.
Its a well seasoned kiln and I believe there will be two or three other people in charge besides myself so I am looking forward to a good community and great pots.
