Artist's Statement: From time to time, starting in 1959, I have engaged in doing a series of Moon Pots. The entry that I have selected for the Fourth Annual Vasefinder National, is form on of the newest in the series. With each piece, I try to show the moon in different stages and different textures. The submitted entry is titled, The Blue Moon.

I want the Sun the Moon and the Stars...but...Make me an offer, and I will tell you what I will settle for. (my favorite expression)
