This summer has been very busy for the members of CAG. We were very happy to have our best day ever at Riverfest weekend before last. Now we are gearing up for a big 3-day weekend at the Grahamsville Little World's Fair on Fri. Aug. 16 to Sun. Aug. 18. I love selling at these fairs--love the sociability of it and making new connections with new people and potential customers. The part before, making, glazing, and firing can be a bit grueling at times, but after doing these fairs with the gallery for the past 2 years or so, I've learned so much about how to pace myself, and how to balance my time for making both new and innovative items, and also for those old tried and true pieces that I know people will always love to buy. If only I could figure out a way to wave a magic wand and have all my pottery, tables, display grids, and display shelves carried to the site and set up for me, and then packed and carried home afterwards, life in summer in the Catskills would be perfect.
Here's a photo of Buff and me at last weekend's Riverfest, and then some photos of my recent work.
