The Merlot Collection


Why has it been so long since I have written on my blog, I have been asking myself ? Travel was one reason; working in new directions with both my clay and calligraphy another. Let's not  forget that old catch all, writers' block. Anyway, new pictures, new thoughts, new blog for today and a welcome into 2024.                                                                      Here are some of my new creations, all in the purple family.AS always everything is lead free and food safe. A well known teacher of mine once said " Victoria, Practice only creates practice. " So I follow that school of thought and try to create something beautiful with each experimental piece. How will a new glaze go on a curved surface ? Does creating texture on a pot bring a new dimension to what is there? How thick and how thin to apply is still a work in progress. A friend of mine sat around and we decided to call this color my "Merlot Collection". Comments?
