I took my paints down to the dock at Burnside Street this evening and worked on a watercolor for a while and tried to sketch, but nothing came out right. So I sketched this still life back home after dinner. It's of two vases and a sugar bowl that were crafted by Bill Lynch of the Penns Creek Pottery in Mifflinburg, PA. It's something of a family tradition to stop by the pottery at least once a year, it's near the cabin owned by my mother's family in our ancestral homeland. The link to the Penns Creek Pottery's webpage is www.pennscreekpottery.com
They make the most beautiful bowls, cups, vases, and other pottery items that I have ever seen. It's definately worth stopping at next time you're in central PA.
