Images of my porcelaneous stoneware work from the last few years. Atmospheric firing is used to add to the clay surface either by flashing the clay body, adding to the glaze chemistry or both.

  1. Hello,

    My name is Jordan Herring and I am a member of the steering committee for the Virginia Association of Forest Health Professionals. We operate an annual conference for 100-200 forest health professionals which will be held this year at the Inn at Virginia Tech on February 13 and 14, 2023.

    We are able to raise funds as a 501(c)(3) non-profit through registration fees, sponsorships, and also through a silent auction which is held during the conference. Past donations have been extremely helpful in allowing us to raise funds so that we can continue providing forest health education to Virginia stakeholders.

    Would you like to donate any items to our silent auction for the 2023 meeting? The pottery pieces on your site are stunning and I think they would garner a lot of interest with our conference attendees. Any items you can provide will be greatly appreciated and you will receive recognition for each donation. If donation is not an option, I completely understand and I appreciate your time either way.

    Please see our website for more information about our organization: http://vafhp.org/

    Again, I appreciate your time and I hope that you enjoy the holiday season.

    Sincerely,

    Jordan

    1. Hello Jordan,
      I would love to help out the Forest Health Professionals. Thanks for reaching out. Can I contact you through your website, to prove this is real and not a scam? I can give you a couple pieces. I’ll see what I have available. Anything in particular? Maybe, I can meet you somewhere in Richmond and give you the pottery, so it doesn’t get broken in shipping?
