If the knitting world caught up on blogs and podcasts early on, the ceramics world lags a wee bit behind. I find this funny, because blogging is an excellent way of showing your work, exchanging experiences and meeting each other over the cultural boundaries.
Juicecups by Mary Anne Davies
However, times are changing and to my delight I’m finding more and more pottery related blogs popping up. Over the next few weeks I thouhgt I’d introduce you to some of these.
Davistudio is one of the first ceramic blogs I came into contact with. It’s written by Mary Anne Davies and she reports on things like kiln openings, sustainability and craft fairs.
In her post from August 26th, Mary Anne writes about micro enterprises and making a living as an artist. I’m really looking forward to following the development of this topic.
Large oval bowl by Diana Fayt
Diana Fayt is the potter behind One Black Bird and in her blog you get to peak behind the scenes and follow the life of a studio potter.
Oval green vase by Emily Murphy
Emily Murphy calls her blog potteryblog and even though it’s not updated very regularly the posts that are there can be enjoyed over and over again! She soda fires her work and if you want to know more about that firing process her blog and site are excellent resources.
Next up: two Toronto based potter bloggers.
