High Desert, NM. Aug 2023.
Quick read- horaltic pose. See link.
On an early morning walk - I encountered 2 Magnificent vultures- wings spread- -atop fence posts.
This is a stunning sight! Quiet & inspiring. Searching for scientists explanation is quite an easteregg hunt.
Though it appears the spread wings act as solar panels and passive grooming method.
Mostly, here is a reminder to outstretch your arms. take a dawn walk.

From my listing on Poshmark: “WoodFired Footed Dish. Polka Dot exterior design & Beautiful Green Glaze inside.
This ceramic piece can be used or displayed. It makes a nice soy dish for dipping sushi or salt pinch pot,
Made by hand in the Minge Sota (sp?) and wabi sabi styles- drawing from both ancient & modern inspirations & fired in an Anagama Kiln. The exterior design is a multi step decorating process using wax resist & slips . One slip is a light yellow hue, the other dark. Black/blue. The darker side has wood ash on it from this unique & old Japanese firing style. The clay body is stoneware. The artist/potter chop mark is missing. But its made by ARTjgm.
It can go in the dishwasher & microwave but do not put it on the stove/oven - do not thermal shock it. 1 tiny chip on the top edge, but don’t consider it a flaw by the nature of this aesthetic style. Natural variations in surface and form from the hand forming & special firing processes.
This piece has some flashing’. Flashing is a desirable effect from atmospheric firing, leaving unique pink, red, orange, yellow hues. This kiln goes to over 2400 degrees Fahrenheit. It’s a very labor intensive firing process which increases its cost & value.
Comes in a box for safekeeping or gifting.
I am downsizing & selling my art collection. This was a part of my collection. Its about 3.75 x 2 inches.
I will float box it - proper way to ship breakables. “
