end of the year

It is here.  The end of the year.  Just a few deliveries to be made. One more Saturday afternoon at the Nest, Tulsa, with a few items set out for sale.  The kiln is cooling down from its last firing of 2014. Time to count everything. Inventory.

This drawing is a couple weeks old.  Hannah paints tiles for me in the studio.  She is young and busy with jobs and friends, and has been painting tiles off and on for quite a while.

This sculpture, currently in the kiln, is the first 'big foot' sculpture I've done in a couple of years.  She is being fired with underglaze painting, bearing a pear on the platter.  She will most likely be finished with oil colors to add brightness to her shoes.
