  1. glad i stumbled on that post - love your vases and your design sketches! truly original which is so rare with pottery. Your work reminds me of Chihuly's pueblo series, in spirit :) - have you ever tried glass blowing?..

    1. hi Helena
      Wow, I'm a huge Dale Chihuly fan, have several of his books, including his drawings. I am so glad his influence shows up and is recognizable. I haven't tried glass blowing. Everything "glass" fascinates me, including mosaics and stained glass. One day, for sure! Thank you! Julia

    2. oh so glad to hear you like Chihuly; i'm totally a junkie - from his Bronx Botanical gardens exhibit circa 2006... since then traveled to Pittsburgh, and to Boston - this is where i fell in love with his pueblo vessels and navajo rugs... Speaking of glass have you heard about Willam Morris (not that Morris): http://www.wmorris.com/
      i have pretty much all his books - absolutely fascinating, his work is closer to ceramics than glass and incredible experience in real life
