Parallel Universe: the other Gary who is a potter and BLOGS


(fantastic dog jug by guest potter Gary Dexter)
Gary Dexter runs Old Canal Pottery in Georgia and blogs it. His style is generally quite different from mine, and he works and fires using the best technology available 200 years ago. It appears that most of his work is traditional wood fired jugs, but he messes around with face jugs and figures a bit, like the example above, and he tells about funny face jugs and their history. A pretty cool historical lesson, checking this out. He is doing this the hard way.

Wow. We're going to have to talk beer jugs one day, Gary.
