Cups-Meara LaFrance

Andrew Gilliat created these cups, I really enjoy the unique shape that hes created. They appear as though they would be comfortable to hold

and drink from. They are very smooth and clean, something that I normally strive for in my own work. I believe that Andrew uses molds to create these cups but they could be thrown and altered to look similar. The surface decoration is also appealing to me, and in somewhat of the same direction that I wish to take my work.

These cups are by David Eichelberger. Again the imagery on the outside of these cups caught my eye, the handles are small but well placed, I also like the simple lines hes drawn on these cups.

Nan Coffin made these simple tumblers. Ive always really enjoyed the orange and grey color scheme on pots, its matched beautifully with a light blue glaze on the interior. The design on the exterior of the cups is nice as well.

This is also Nan Coffin its called "Kicked Back Cup" which I thought was clever. I like the colors and again the clean simplistic style.

    These Cups were created by Tara Wilson, Im envious of the way she can so gracefully manipulate the clay leaving it in an array of beautiful shapes with clean surfaces. I had the opportunity to watch her work last year when she came to our school, she was wonderful. The handles and curves of these cups is what attracts me the most as well as the colors.
