Denim and Leather

 There are so many aspects to the creative process involved in making pottery. When it come to the glazing, I’ve been known to mull over colors for weeks before I come to conclusions. Sometimes I will stand back and squint my eyes at a piece and imagine colors and combinations. Sometimes I will dream about them instead. The Denim and Leather series came to me in one of those quiet moments before falling asleep one night. It just clicked and I smiled visibly. I knew it would be a passionate and perfect glaze combination.

Of course it is!!!! You can also call it blue and brown - and THAT is always a beautiful color combination!!! But "Denim and Leather" is the perfect title for a new series!
And yes, in the twilight minutes before falling asleep, often the best ideas occur! :-)

All the new stuff is soooo pretty dear Jill - what a talented potter you are! :-)

Jill, it's a marriage made in heaven. I often fall in love with color combos, and this is exquisite and sophisticated. I love it!
