This rectangular baking dish
may be one of the most useful
ceramic pieces I made.
It just fits in our toaster oven,
and there's no need to heat up
the whole oven for browning.

peeled and split) Bainiku Ae (literally,
harmonized, or dressed with pickled
plum paste)"
When I choose a pumpkin (15cm d.)
at the farmers' market,
I always look at the bottom of
the pumpkin at the ring.
They say the bigger the ring
the sweeter the pumpkin is.
It was in spring that I started
making new canvas cushion covers.
Kakishibu, fermented tannin juice,
stinks in the beginning, but now
the smell is gone and the sunlight
has deepend the color enough.
It looks and feels like "Kamiko", paper cloth.

Every time I use the muffin tins,
I wonder which hardware store it was.
In 1977 we were walking up some street
from Fisherman's Wharf and dropped in...
After applying glazes,
I often have 'this' idea
come to me "what if".

Small amount of clear blue/green
glazes sprayed over copper matte
have melt and 'run' together.
I'll never get tired of discovering
minute changes in colors.
