Pottery!





MacLean has been taking pottery since she was 6 years old. She definately has a natural talent for the art of pottery. She sees the potential of every piece of clay. She carefully crafts each piece and if you are lucky enough to have a piece of her pottery you know how special it is. She has been working on the wheel throwing pots for years. She is a natural and her teacher keeps saying she will retire when MacLean is old enough to take over the class. MacLean thinks carefully about what she is making and has recently started working with large pieces of clay on the wheel and one night threw five pots in less than an hour. I look and watch in amazement and wonder as my daughter just knows what to do. I took a few pictures of some of the pots she has done recently. She has sold many of her pots and given many of them away. Last week she gave a beautiful tile to her student teacher who was leaving her class.

Enjoy the few pics I took of some of her work.
