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 #72

This cup came off of the potter's wheel with three pulsating ridges (still evident) to mark the visit to my studio of two women friends from my writing group and the reunion of the three of us....it then began to break into more unexpected ridges a few days later, (when it was time to attach the handle and sculpt), during a visit from another writer who plans to do an article on this project...it did become a very energetic and complicated little cup.
