Hi,
Thanks for checking in! What an absolutely gorgeous weekend here in the Twin Cities. I ended up traveling to Fort Snelling State Park, which is nearby the international airport. Here is a picture of some yellow wildflowers I found in a field.

And some captivating orangish-yellow mushrooms growing in water-saturated log.

A wooly bear caterpillar dashing under some fallen leaves.

My coworker running the Twin Cities Marathon. She's on the left in this picture, and smiling on Mile #24. Only 2 miles left! Sorry if the picture isn't crisp, she was running really fast!

Two 21" diameter bowls waiting to dry. It might take up to 2 weeks for these to dry and be able to put them into the kiln.

I really like the following vase. Sorry I don't have any fancy artist backdrop, but the variation in color on this pot is really worth noting.The bottom glaze is a traditional tenmoku, and I've dipped the top 1/3 in a red kaki glaze, which yielded this rust red to purple. I think it would be interesting to have a whole pot with this variation, and the next glaze firing I do I'll make sure to have a few like it.

And lastly, my small attempts at cleaning the studio up. I'm waiting for about 500lbs of clay to dry, so I can wedge and throw, so I've settled on cleaning the studio for a few days and mixing up some glaze chemicals.
