Each of our fountains is unique and entirely crafted by hand. After the bowl is created, the rim is carved and left to dry. The drying process will take 1-3 weeks depending upon the humidity. You can't dry pots too fast or they'll crack (and that wouldn't do for our fountains)! Pottery forces one to take it slow...
After bowl is "bone dry" it gets bisque fired in the kiln. When it's done, I then contemplate the bowl and imagine what the fountain head should be! This is the fun part because I get to test out lots of ideas. The trick is that you can't test them with water until the fountain head is fired.
Combining art with functionality is what pottery is all about. I like to get the best sound possible without the splash! How many times did Edison "try" before he created the lightblub? Every "try" without success is a learning process. Potters live & learn and keep tweeking ideas until they work. This is the joy of creating!

"Throwing pots is a form of meditation for me. The feel and scent of the clay is very soothing. Before I begin, I give the clay Reiki. This energy connects me to the clay and opens up my creativity." Diana Brower
