Sadly, The Lonely Potter has been taking a rather long hiatus from the pottery studio. His time and energy has been going into more mundane activities, like fence building, weed control and barn building. These have all taken a toll on his joints and the arthritis in his hands, hips, back, shoulders and un-replaced knee has made the prospect of standing and working with clay for hours too painful to consider right now.
To keep his creative spirits up this winter, he has re-discovered his interest in water colors. This is not to say that he is completely satisfied with this medium, but at least he is getting some artist's frustration out of his system. And I like it too.
