500 Vases: My Entries
Yesterday, I dropped off my 500 Vases entry at Lark Books in Asheville. I've slacked over the years with trying to get my work in books. I think that I was never satisfied with the quality of my images. A couple of years ago, I decided to get rid of my crappy photo booth and go to Tim Barnwell Studio Photography and never looked back. High quality pictures are so worth the money. Anyway, here's the three pots I entered for consideration for the book. These were all made last year and once-fired in my salt kiln. Deadline for your entry is Feb 2. Go do it!

Excellent photos of excellent pots. The second and third are stunners. Good luck!
Hi Kyle,
All 3 are stunning. I hope you get selected. I too submitted a few pieces for 500 vases. This was my second try at submitting work for the 500 series. I found your blog as I was searching to see if the book was published yet. Last time I submitted I received a polite rejection letter, this year I haven't heard anything. Have you heard? I take my own photos but use a well equipped studio at the college where I trained in ceramics. Keep me posted.

Hey Kyle,
Any word from Lark on your submissions?
