Off to good homes

Every now and then I'll ask a gallery visitor if I can take a photo of them with their purchase for the blog. The criteria for the "ask" are:
1. If they seem like they'd be willing...
2. If their purchase is not for a surprise gift...
3. If my camera is with me at the time and handy...
4. If I'm not covered in clay and already fumbling around...
5. If it doesn't seem like they're in a big rush...

In all cases, the people have been pleased to have their picture taken. It's fun for me to look back on some of the pictures and see who my pots are with now.

Here is customer Jennifer Benjamin from Upland, Ca., with her purchase. She likes to buy pottery and other art when visiting the central coast, especially when she can meet the artists. Great to meet young people with that kind of sensibility.

  1. That really is cool to meet a young person who wants to purchase art especially when she can meet the artist, good for Jennifer.
