Hi Randy :
I was just about sure the bowls wouldn't make it to me yesterday - the UPS man
didn't deliver them until 7:30 last evening - but now all is well and they
arrived in perfect condition, thanks to your impressive packing.
I'm really enjoying the pieces very, very much! It's great to see the real thing
in three dimensions. The curved sides of the bowls makes for an interesting
effect which of course is hard to appreciate from the pictures. I actually
hadn't quite realized how deep the bowls are - I'm sure painting on those steep
sides really takes some getting used to. I do like the 9" G-122 a lot and of
course the Twins with Cloud Monster is one of my favorite story bowls.
Thanks for sending the display easels! I was expecting to need to go out looking
for a pair. The adjustable ones you sent are especially good because they allow
for variations in the angle for display, which is important. (I'm not sure I
would have thought of that if I had gone looking for some to buy.)
I will treasure the bowls and want to thank you again for all that you and
Marlyn put into them, all the great pictures, and all the many things we've
talked about. I'm sure we will be staying in touch and I'm sure I've not run out
of questions.
Best Regards to you and Marlyn,
Charles

Mr and Mrs Werner,
My name is Jennifer Mickle and I am the daughter of Jim and Judy Laird.
I just had the opportunity to speak with my mother and she was saying how much fun she and my father had with you and your family. She was so excited about the pottery they purchase. How you design and make the pieces is amazing. To put so much heart and thought into your art, preserving the history and majesty of ancient cultures, is a great thing.
I just wanted to say thank you for hosting my parents at your house and showing them what you both do. It has been the highlight of their trip.
As I am with my husband while he is stationed with the Air Force overseas in Korea, I am not able to be there during the holidays. To know my parents are having a fun trip meeting people like you gives me comfort.
Thank you again and have warm and blessed holidays.

The seed jar arrived, beautifully packed and in perfect
condition. I just love it, and I'm sure Dave will, too. You folks do
extraordinary work.
Enjoy the fall!

You were so wonderful in taking care of our needs
and getting the pottery to my family. We really felt like we were part
of the process and knowing how it was made makes it even more
beautiful. The pottery we received exceeds our every expectation.
Seeing the pottery in real life, you can see how much time and care was
put into it. It looks and feels like an ancient piece of art. I cannot
thank you enough. Andrea Peterson - Seattle, WA |

I am very impressed with your work. I have taken classes with Clint Swank, Ignacio, and your work is outstanding. I currently work as a field archaeologist with the US Forest Service, and a mapper with the Archaeologist Dept. at Fort Lewis College. I would love to visit your gallery this coming summer, and wondered if you offer classes, internships, or such. I have dabbled in some replication work, but have never seen such authentic dedication to using the original materials. Working in the field most of the time, the pot sherds we find are tiny bits and pieces. It's a joy to see what they were suppose to look like. I have followed your work for several years, and have an old brochure. I would love to be able to purchase one of your replicas in the future. Thank you, Janet Marie Clawson-Cano.
Sincerely,
Very much impressed with your work, I to do
