The Big Night
It was a success! Chris had his reception tonight and we had a fairly good turnout. We think about 60 people came, and sold almost 30 pots. We missed some of our friends just coming to look, but it's a busy time of year. We had a great time! Here are some pictures I took. Once again, I'm not the best at photographing pottery, but I got pictures of most of it so you can see what Chris has been working on for the last few months! I'll write more details later. I just wanted to post the pictures. I do see, however that I didn't take a picture of the FOOD that I'VE been working on for weeks! Let's just say, the food was good too!

Hi All,
This is Chris posting. I just wanted to say that it really is too bad that Audra did not take any pictures of the food! It was incredible and very well presented. I wish we had taken some pictures of the show while it was going on. The place I had the show was an old coffee shop. Audra says I should just put this in the blog....
AWESOME pots Chris! I especially love the Raku. Wow I wish I could afford to buy handmade pottery.
Chris you are AMAZING!
Chris,
I really miss seeing your pottery! I loved the purchases I made last year. You really need to get a web site going and some online store for fans from a distant location. OK, maybe I am being selfish for my own purchases.
Audra, did you make the delicious leche cake? You know how I love it!
Miss you! Love, Lisa
Oh la la! I'm sad to have missed it. They look like fantastic pots (and i have no doubt the food was great too!).
Chris, awesome job!!! I am so glad that you had a good turnout. Looks fun and all of your stuff is really really good! What an amazing talent you have! I can't wait for christmas :) tee hee :)
Wow! Those pots look awesome! Looks like you have been working hard. I am glad that you had a good turnout! I recognize the horse hair pots like the ones we made at the family reunion. We have ours displayed on our mantle with the names JV made for us. By the way, we were wondering what you charge for your pottery, we are interested in buying some.
What a talent you have. Everything was beautiful and the photography was great.
Chris I love your pottery and that you are still able to do work and fire your pottery.. Since we have moved to the desert I have yet to find a place that I can fire. I think I may have to break down and buy a kiln.. the trick is coming up with the space and the moolah! Great work and such variety too, Ahh it reminds me of the good old days! ☺
The pots are really nice, I am very impressed! How was the turn out? Any sales? Hope your hard work paid off- for both of you!
WOW!! I had no idea you made such beautiful pottery! I'm impressed! I hope your able to have more shows. I think the online store is a great idea!
