Ok it has been  quite a while, I have finally posted some pieces on my etsy site (nancysmeltzer.etsy.com)and wanted to share them with you. Also I am making new work for  the last two shows I am doing this year. One is   Black Friday in Smicksburg at Little Mahoning Creek Gallery, and then the next  Friday and Salt, Nov 30th and Dec. 1st at the Robert Shaw Building for the annual  IUP Pottery sale, (former Underground Pot Sal) 

Another Potters Tour,  It was fun,  A lot of friends stopped by, It was great having Bryce Hemington in the studio throwing pottery,  I invited my friend Kyle Houser to the tour next year. I hope he says yes. I met a few other IUP grad students and along with Bryce we have made a  plan to fire the wood kiln and maybe even get that fast fire kiln done that I started last year. Here are a few pics from the Tour

Here are some additional pieces that were just fired
