New Jugbirds for ArtWalk

When clouds weren’t obscuring the lovely sun yesterday morning I dashed outside and photographed my brand-new jugbirds on a suitable tree stump or garden walkway, wherever a bird might happen to hesitate.

Later in the day I enjoyed a jaunt in to Granville Island. At Circle Craft I borrowed back half a dozen of my best salt-fired pieces to show to ArtWalk guests. And Vincent Massey and I were able to meet up so that we could transfer 3 boxes of my bisque-fired, liner-glazed and wadded pieces to his car. He is on the island on Monday evenings to take a painting class at ECUAD. He plans to fire his salt kiln at his Whistler studio in early May so I will be waiting excitedly to hear how that goes. Thanks So Much Vincent!

    Nice new and fresh set of birds ready to take flight Gill. I figured out how to comment. Also nice comments about the FVPG show, it really is spectacular and runs for another 3 weeks or so. So everyone who is interested in clay should go out to see it.
