I had a wonderful time yesterday evening at @merryfarmpottery demonstrating how I do surface decoration on my pots. That’s my son @gordonmoore97 carving a pot beside me! The wonderful @abbeykuheceramics and Scott Campbell were also there.

My son, @gordonmoore97, is having a show of his ceramic pieces at Merry Farm Pottery, Thursday August 27 from 4-8pm. One day only. He has been working as a studio assistant at the pottery all summer, and this show gives all of us an opportunity to purchase his creations. The pieces are functional, fired at cone 10 reduction, created with porcelain, stoneware, and local island clay.
