In a few months my two year stay at the Jones Pottery will be coming to a close. In the final few months I would like to document both the day to day running of a production pottery as well as both the challenges and the rewards that an apprenticeship offers. My hope is that both potters and non potters alike will find something in the pages to follow that pertains to all of us. Some post will be of a more technical nature while others will be more reflective, inquisitive etc. I really encourage you to challenge me on any idea you think is bogus or crazy or whatever. Also.. a really big thanks all who have taught and inspired me over the years. Mr Rabideau, Jackie Sedlock, Charlie Tefft, and to Matt Jones just to name those who put my hands in the clay....also to Michael Kline for being the inspiration for this blog.

Enjoy,
Alex Matisse
