"Year of the Garden - August"
It was received on 03 November 2009. Card travel time: 8 days
EDIT: Some Finnish words I learned are:
- puutarhan = garden
- vuosi = year
- puutarhan vuosi = gardening year
- Elokuu = August
These same words in Swedish are:
- trådgårdens = garden
- år = year
- Augusti = August

Hitch and I recently connected with a fabulous potter out of GA/SC, Gary Dexter, aka the “Mad Potter.” Gary is an artist that works in the Old Edgefield style of pottery which was an ash-glazed stoneware produced throughout the Nineteenth Century in the Old Edgefield District of SC. He runs a traditional wood-fired kiln.
Cookin’!
Mothers’ Day is just around the corner, friends. Now I know that conventional wisdom says that kitchen gifts for mom are a bit patronizing, but… it really depends on the gift. One of our newest artists produces the most amazing cookware - real heirlooms in the making. Check this stuff out! Allan Buitekant in his North Carolina studio Meet Allan Buitekant - You all watch “Mad Men,” here’s one of them. From the 50s through the 90s Allen was one hot sh*t creative director in NYC for one of the most dynamic ad agencies of the period, Doyle, Dane, Bernbach. The creative knowledge absorbed in such a charged environment while working with such great artists as Richard Avedon, while at the same time studing pottery at Greenwich House in New York City with Jim Crumrine, at the Brooklyn Museum Art School with Jolyn Hofstead, the 92nd. St.Y in New York City with Byron Temple and theParson’s School of Design in New York City led to a unique understanding of creativity both in communication and clay. At America Creates, we emphasize the functional beauty of the handmade, Allan’s work is the epitome of this high level of craftsmanship. Here are a few examples of his work. Allan has created many objects of graceful lines and innovative design that will make your kitchen a more beautiful environment. Imagine serving your guest from a few of these.

Opened pod (pitted, torn, scratched, carved)
This piece is another thrown pot that's been hung upside down and distorted,
then later carved.
Thrown flower #4
An early piece from the thrown flower series, this one with rather experimental glazing.
Thrown flower #5
This piece is one in a series of flowerish forms I've thrown in the past few years. Glazes: Loreena’s green with Regnor’s and iron oxide.
