This is my journal documenting an ongoing creative endeavor sustained by a single underlying current with 100 momentary breaks, each indicated by an individual porcelain cup which reveals both continuity and uniqueness in the way the pot is thrown, the handle is pulled and wrapped,
and the form is carved and sculpted. Each piece is photographed in its raw
porcelain clay state before being fired or glazed. If you would like to follow the progression from Cup #1, scroll down and click "Older Posts" or begin at the Blog Archive "2010", "March".

The 100 Cups collection is available for exhibition.

Cup #49

The handle vine becomes more fluid as I trust my fingers to find their way around the soft clay...
The first cup after my return from 3 1/2 months on Manitoulin Island.

Cup #45

A wormy, curly little one has tucked itself in the loop of the handle vine

The handle vine splits at the base, moves up the cup, curls, and splits open again as a seed emerges...
