Yes, I know.  You all are sick of hearing about local shopping.  Well, sorry.  Here is one more for today.

Yesterday, my Black Friday shopping consisted of going to Gary Rith’s open studio.  Gary is a potter who lives in Etna, NY.  His studio is part of his home and is a wonderful, cozy place.  You can always find Gary’s home/studio as it is the purple house on Main Street, NYS Route 366 in Etna.

I did buy a Christmas present.  I will not say what or for whom but it is one more person off my list.  Below are some shots of works in progress at Gary’s yesterday.  Below the pictures are various web sites Gary has.

Works in progress and works finished
