Plate Week!



Small lunch plates, dessert plates, and platters.  Oh the soft clay is begging to be thrown, if only there was enough room in the studio to make that many all at once!  The carving is just as fun and here's my favorite printmaking carving tool.  These plates are carved on the back because it's fun to leave surprises for people to enjoy on the back as well!

Must be in the air. I'm filling the table with plates tonight!

There is no carving like yours, Joy! I saw some of your pieces at Frank here in Chapel Hill and they were even better in person!
