Mateo’s pottery

[Colorado]

Thank you everybody! More to come soon.

I will be shipping my green ware to @BrightsideB for firing for the first time. I’m hoping to eventually find a studio here that offers kiln services.

Have you tried Kilnshare?

#8 got sent off to fire without any pictures taken, it’s a larger version of the stump accent pot.

#9. I did this one for a future planting of a small ficus religiosa. It has a peepal leaf etched on the front and “tree of life” in Japanese on the bottom

Wow those are incredible. If I could make pots that well I don’t think I would ever buy any, or at least a lot less.

Thank you but I am still an amateur…. I still buy quite a few pots

I have no skin in this game but @BrightsideB made this possible and he just happens to do commission work as well. You can check out his Etsy store where he’s always adding sweet pieces.
