What is going on with your life?
  • 8.23.11  Staci and I had a wonderful visit to the Mercer Museum, Font Hill, and the Moravian Tile Works in Doylestown, Pa. to celebrate our first anniversary.  Thanks to all well wishers!  Mr. Kent Black has been working on Wooden Objects and anciliary late summer season tasks.  It has been a good year for me as a person.
  • 9.27.10  Little kent got married on August 19th, 2010.  We eloped.  It was great.  Come to our party on October 23rd.  Silent Auction.  Pig.  No Nonsense. 
  • 6.20.10  Busy time...Making time. Burning wooden objects.  It's plenty warm, but hose me down and I'll be okay.  Lenses and Caves have been coming along.  Living Large...Living Local. 

  • 2.22.10   Winter lingers on in Huntingdon... and so, the fires yet need tending.  This past month has brought time for making, reflection, and regeneration.  Thanks to the snow for allowing the seasonal wealth of discretionary time.  All too soon, the Spring scramble will begin.  And, whether you like it or not... you better wear your boots.

  • 12.13.9  Pictures of the new kiln project are up as well as images of the new bread oven, just completed this past fall.

  • 12.13.9   Winter owness has pushed much of this years creative efforts indoors.  Though, the last three months have been nothing but fruitful.  Much progress has been made on the mixer as well as the new kiln, just completed last month.  New pictures are available under images
  • 9.12.9     New pictures of the Blue Moon Studio and other projects are now available. God-willing, I am planning to have a show this fall of things made to help with the transition into a new (and yet unknown) studio space.  
  • 8.25.09 After a two week assistanceship at the Penland School of Craft in North Carolina, I have returned to Huntingdon, Pa... to rejoin the delightful locale that I call home.  The Penland experience was thoroughly positive, practical, and productive.  Two weeks went by so quickly, and in a flurry, that time has passed.  However, I can't help but feel thankful for the lingering aesthetic experience that transcends my time there.  Who knew that two weeks could yield two months worth of work with new friends, new ideas, and new approaches to the same old problems that makers contend with every day?
