Nora is the only woman (Lucky girl!Show them how it’s done!) living and working at Cub Creek, a ceramics artist residency in Appomattox, VA. She says “They are all great guys but this ratio gave me the idea to make some feminine whisky bottles.”

I’ve got to tell you guys, I’m loving this! So nice to see and share such gorgeous work with you!
Here’s today’s pics brought to you from Priscilla Mouritzen who you may know from the Pinch Pots Blog. She’s a South-African-born ceramist, living in Denmark.
The first is of 5 pinched porcelain wood-fired bowls and the second of one pinched porcelain w-f bowl. All were exhibited at Galerie Besson, London in 2008.

In Monica’s words: My last batch of work has come from a book titled “the man who mistook his wife for a hat” by oliver sacks. It’s a bunch of animals with people paraphernalia.
As the snow still exists here I’m jealous of Monica living in North Florida…sigh, will i ever wear shorts again??? Please check out her blog and etsy shop for more.

New works by Shannon Garson, Mel Robson and Kenji Uranishi
From the Pomme website:
Opening on Friday 3 April “Little Un’s”. Ceramic works by three Queensland Potters, Mel Robson, Kenji Uranishi and Shannon Garson. The brief for this group show was ‘keep it small’and the artists were only too happy to oblige with a series of exquisite, but perfectly functional cups,jugs and vessels. On show until 24 April 2009.

Here we go folks! April is Artist of the day month, enjoy and thanks to all those that submitted, I’m really looking forward to a month of visual inspiration. Yummy eye candy!!!
Our first artist is Kip O’Krongly.
You can find out more about Kip at www.kipokrongly.blogspot.com, or www.kipokrongly.com.
In Kip’s words:
I am a functional potter working primarily in low fire earthenware at the Northern Clay Center in Minneapolis, MN. I use graphic imagery to exlpore my interest in the intersection of food production, energy use and transportation issues. I am intrigued by the way utilitarian ceramics can spark conversation and serve as a medium for personal interaction and change. When I’m not in the studio, I love to bake and knit!
Thanks Kip!
