Thank you

"... I haven't peaked yet nor have they [the apprentices]..." I find this comment inspirational as he is scaling down his workload, while at 69 years, I'm just starting out in my journey with clay :)

This video has given me a new-found admiration of the artist that you are . . . especially with your apprentices. 🪴

Very nice piece, Mark!

Hey Mark, are you standing up while you do this? I really want to continue throwing but it's hurting my back sitting down. Is there a different skillset you employ when doing it standing up? Any differences? Would you share your experience with that

Wow, this is some really great stuff. Wish I could go there and see it myself but my doctor is keeping me home. Oh well have a great show. Best wishes from South Texas fan.

I thought I saw a salt fired mug

Great talent making art that will last for centuries and be enjoyed by generations to come.

The best of the hand-made!! Should be better known.

Gorgeous art, thoughtful words & life, as always... Wonderful to see Mark & Carol and apprentices. "It's a small part to play, but I'm going to play it with all my heart." What beautiful community we could build if we all thought like this, and what beautiful community you have built.

I have been following your work for years. It speaks to my heart. I do hope to make it to a kiln opening in the coming year. I'm still on your mailing list! :-)

Congratulations are sent to you by an old master potter from Germany. We are all crazy, worldwide! A pleasure to see your work. Katrin

Deciple of Michael Cardew....😊

Thanks for the update. I was reading the other day about succession in the Raku family. The master, who was in his 70's, has retired and his son, in his 50's, has taken over the head of the family pottery business. Apparently this has been a pattern for a few hundred years. The retired master continues to work, without the burden of being the star. Maybe it's an amateur status. Making pots for the love of the craft.

Great to have UA-cam to help promote the craft. I've learned so much from many masters now.

Pottery is tactile poetry, thank you for this. What an exceptional exhibition.

I detect an English accent, or Australian..?

Beautiful form- looks effortless with masterful techniques!

Beautiful curve. Like fairing a curve on a sailboat

멋있어요^^

Not onyl is that not blue at all, but it isnt even a skink. Thats a common Brown Anole.

That’s not blue nor a skink.

Hope you have a great sale. You have some great stuff.

Great looking pots hope the sale goes well.

My favourite potter in the world!!

Nice throwing, I use a small electric heater with a built in fan. Flame is ok if you have a space, otherwise dont try it at home....

If i may suggest... U should retire.. And make special pots.. B more ZEN if you will.. Cheers.. You can buy me a beer for my wisdom- k.o.f.

Mark I enjoy watching your videos especially the ones where you're making pottery on the wheel.

Martin - you talk about doing initial pulls on the "left hand" side, and pushing with a brace against your thigh. It looks like you're using the top of the palm of your outer hand. Can you go into more detail about what you're doing here with both hands? What should we feel for?

I'm in my second year now and pushing myself. Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge. It's really helpful to me. I'm 58 and pottery is becoming my retirement job.

You sir, are one talented Potter!!

Can’t wait! Need to buy a wedding present.

What an incredible space you have. The pottery is absolutely amazing!!!

What a wonderful pitcher. Watching you make this is mesmerizing. Might I ask where you got the rib and how tall do these pitchers end up. Thank you for taking time to share.

Amazing to see this transformation!!! Thanks for sharing!

More videos, please! Love your work.

Dreamy swooping curves 😍. Would you mind telling me the approximate height of your 3 1/2 lb jug.

beauty

Круто!!!!

Awesome work. In highschool I lived very close to Edgefield, SC and was immensely influenced by David Drake, a slave potter who created unique jugs and pots with faces on them, but who also threw huge pots such as the ones you do.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience. Starting my second year now in pottery. I'm ready to improve my skills to the next level. This will be a great challenge.

Oh! you use the Cornish left pull-up, nice

That height at 1 1/4 lbs of clay is insane. Wow.

That’s not straight mug. That’s a flared mug. Thanks from St. Paul Minnesota.

Ooh, so happy to find a NC potter. Thanks for sharing.

great to bring just over a pound of clay that high, very elegant Mark. Thanks for the demo.

Hi Mark Is that stoneware you use?

Do you reach down to the center seam and work it from inside as well? I’d love to see the glazing/firing process on this piece if you have time to video that as well!

Thank you.

Please tell me where i could purchase the metal rib you used that seems to be rather triangular in shape with a hole cut in the middle. I am from the USA and there are none like that here. Nice work and thank you for the video!!
