About Me
- gary rith
- Gary Rith is a full-time studio potter and also an instructor of pottery at Cornell University's Pot Shop. Gary started learning pottery in 1983. In 1985 he served as an apprentice to Dean White of Deansboro, NY and earned a bachelor's degree in art from Bennington College in 1987. He has been a full-time sculptor and potter since 1997. Gary started his business in New Hamspshire, where he was selected as a member of the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen in 2004 and in 2005 was named one of New Hampshire's Emerging Ceramics Artists. He moved to the Ithaca, NY area in 2006, near where he grew up, and is happily making pots and sculpture in a purple house on Fall Creek. Gary likes to laugh, and his first goal is to have fun making pots.

Very nice. And I don't think making plates are easy. I remmember making some in college, and I never could get the thickness exactly right.
The really cool thing is, none of the glazing is exactly the same... right, Gary? I can hardly wait to see them all!
(Please tell me some of them might look like mountains with red sunsets!)
yes, they, ah, all look like mountains and sunsets, and well, for glazing, just a quick dip in the purple followed by a quick dip in the red....so no, not the same
Identical plates are boring. You don't do boring. My quote over there on the right says so. :-D
C'est Beau!
Very impressive pottery. I've tried to "pot" over the years but was never very successful. I have many lopsided coffee mugs and bowls. I like your blog. The Joy Division video of an earlier post brought me WAY back...I love them! You have good taste in music.
