Honored to be included

I was very surpised when asked to have one of my pots included in a bonsai article. Got the it today and honored to be included with Dan Barton. Love his pottery and gives me plenty of inspiration.
Bonsai & Stone Wabi Sabi

Again I am honor to be included with such great potters from around the world
Bonsai Artist article

Funny how I do no soliciting to bonsai folks but my name crops up frequently within their ranks.

I'm a succulent guy not a bonsai artist.

Sacramento C&S Show May 4th-5th 2013

A few of my entries into a local C&S show

A trial of something different, adding slip to a dark clay body. This one burst out white I was making it. Instead of  throwing it out I stained and fired it.

...and created a beautiful planter.

Another staged with Adenia perrieri
