Deborah's Art Blog

I haven’t posted in a while.  I’ve been crazy busy in the studio, preparing for The “F” Words—Form, Function & Flux exhibit presented by our ceramic group, POWR (Potters of the Wind Rivers).   There will be nine artists presenting, and the work ranges from raku to wood fire, salt fire, and electric.  Our group has… read more

I was sad to learn today of the passing of one of my heroes, Janet Mansfield.  As a reader of her books and publications, and a fan of her work (especially the salt-glaze pieces), I was sorry to hear of her passing at age 79.  Here’s a link to a mini interview she gave in… read more

I’ve just established a new blog on Word Press.  Thought I would try it out to see if I can achieve greater flexibility in my posts.  I hope you’ll check it out!  It’s called Deborah Britt Pottery-Thoughts, Pots & Rambles  If you like it, please subscribe.  I’d love to hear what you think!

I’ve just posted new work from the last two firings.  Art Fairs in Casper and Jackson have kept me busy, but now it’s time for a little R&R!  Enjoy the new work, and please let me know if you have any questions.

But . .  the kiln is cooling and I should be able to post some new results shortly!  I will be an exhibitor at the Jackson Hole Art Fair next weekend, so let’s hope I have some tolerably good work to bring with me!
