The career of flowers

"The career of flowers differs from ours only in inaudibleness.
I feel more reverence as I grow for these mute creatures whose
suspense or transport may surpass my own."

Emily Dickinson to her cousins
Louise and Frances Norcross,
ca. April 1873

Ah, to be able to think and speak such lovely thoughts.
This quote is from a truely beautiful book that I have just
discovered. "The Paper Garden" by Molly Peacock. In it she
writes about an artist who begins her life's work at 72.
see = http://www.molly@mollypeacock.org A book for any
lover of arts or botony.

When is a container not a container ??

New Work !! I have converted the Lotus Vases in to lidded containers at the request of Shibui Design in Los Angeles. These are potentially to by used as pet urns. I think they would be nice for hiding little treasures you want to save. You could unexpectedly come across whatever you hide in years to come.

If Today be Sweet

A poem for the day! I need to get my head out of the office and all of
the attempts at marketing my pottery in this new cyber world I find myself
floundering in! So I shall fall back onto these sweet words and give myself
a break...

Ah, fill the Cup:---what boots it to repeat
How Time is slipping underneath our Feet:
Unborn TOMORROW,and dead YESTERDAY,
Why fret about them if TODAY be sweet!


Omar Khayyam
