I caught a glimpse of Your splendor
In the corner of my eye
The most beautiful thing I've ever seen
And it was like a flash of lightning
Reflected off the sky
And I know I'll never be the same

Show me Your glory
Send down Your presence
I want to see Your face
Show me Your glory
Majesty shines about You
I can't go on without You, Lord

When I climb down the mountain
And get back to my life
I won't settle for ordinary things
I'm gonna follow You forever
And for all of my days
I won't rest 'til I see You again

Show me Your glory
Show me Your glory
I can't live without You

Looking For Fall



The Boys and I went walking out at the lake looking for signs of fall. I was hoping to get off some great shots, and feel the crunch of leaves under my feet. So far, the nights have been to warm for color to start. But we did walk thru a field with hundreds of yellow butterflies. I managed to get off a quick shot before the boys chased them all away. It was still a great time.

Horse Lidded Vessel


Here is my finished piece which was posted earlier in the leather hard stage. The glaze is actually a black and the horses are a deep blue.

Lidded Vessel ~ Angel


The angel on top of this piece is on her knees, head bowed, hands cupped together...holding a prayer that was just offered up...
They do hear us, you know??
(I was considering glazing this in a matte white, but perhaps I will just clear glaze it and let clay and the line and flow of this one speak for itself)

Lidded Vessel


This lidded vessel was inspired by my horse lady friend. Made from Terra-Cotta clay, it's still in the drying stage and will be bisque fired in the next load. It can be used for decoration or the lid can be removed and the vessel used as a vase.
The glaze will change the look of this completely. I'll post a pic after it's glazed.

In The Works


Here are a few pots that have been bisque-fired, glazed around the top with Copper Adventurene. I have a 3rd one, waiting to come out of the kiln. These will be Pit-fired in a barrel full of leaves and sawdust. I will post pictures of the finished pieces as soon as they are done. It's been a long process for 3 pots that are only 6" tall. But of all the pieces I've done lately, these are my favorite so far.
