Ayumi Horie

I recently received an email from ceramic artist Ayumi Horie. I think her work is lovely and I especially like how she incorporates typography. With the animals and the numbers and the letters and the dots, her pieces look like they would be comfortable in a house with children.

Today, she'll be putting up something like 140 new pots on her website here around 2:00.

Ayumi's studio is new New Paltz, where my husband is a professor. From the glimpes of her studio shown on her website, it looks like a wonderful place. I'm hoping to stop by next time I'm in her neighborhood.

One last thing, don't miss the "pots in action" page of her site. Delightful.
