I AM OFFICIALLY A SEMI-PROFESSIONAL POTTER

My First Pottery Sale!!

Today (November 17) was my first pottery sale.
The managers of my studio (at the Boston Center for Adult Education) organized a ceramics/craft sale for studio students and other area artists to show stuff and sell it leading up to the holidays.
I got a table to show my stuff. God (and my roomate) know I have too much stuff to keep it all myself!!
I sold several things which, given my low expectations, was very satisfying.

One girl at the very beginning was eyeing the 5 petal bowls (lower right in the top picture. and YES they are modeled after the original two now owend by C. Stanvick) and a few hours later brought her mom over to buy them.

Another woman was eyeing a few different things and decided to buy the 4 mocha/electricblue bowls (middle of top picture.) she went to the ATM to get cash and when she got back she decided to also buy the large covered casserole dish (very top right, top picture.) I was very psyched, those were my very favorite things on my table.

A friend came buy and said he'd buy the bronze-green vase (lowish left, top picture) but, of course, I'm giving it to him as a gift instead :)

Most of the stuff on my table was all new so I havent posted full pics on the blog - coming soon!

Also my parents came to the show, here is a pic of me and my dad
