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.

A delicate strand emerges from the stronger handle vine and moves it's way around it's cup in soft breaks and folds....

(Check out this cup body before sculpting in the previous post)

Cup #87 (in three stages)

Six hours later!... 3 handle vines in lifting harmony....

Three small soft handle vines in the rough...two attached at the top and one at the bottom getting ready for interplay...

The cup bodies of #87, 88, 89, 90 (left to right) perched on a throwing bat. Cup #87 is only 3 1/2 inches tall....an accident in which I lost the top of the cup in throwing and decided to turn it into a small opportunity. Cups #88, 89, and 90 are now wrapped in plastic so they will stay moist until it's their turn for a handle.
