A Few More Pots....

Since I started drawing pots, I decided to sketch some of the others I have around the house. Here are three of my favorites. I like the matte green and brown tones of older pottery.

 The fluted top pot on the left is an old Weller, the taller middle pot is a Peters and Reed, and the vase on the right is a Niloak. These are from the "Art's and Crafts" period (early 1900's) and I like their earthy colors and textures.

Beautiful! You've got the colors and textures down perfectly.

Lovely sketch! These handsome pots have the colors that are often found in your paintings. They (whoever they are) said the things we collect reflect something of us.

*The pot on the right has an extremely interesting shape.

Oh this is really nice. I love the light reflection showing the glossy surface. Nice! :)

You have captured these pots beautifully - I also love all your other work - the bananas, and the fence. I'm still searching for a fence.
