Who made this great mug?
Send me your answer to Famous Potter Challenge #3.
Congrats to Ron, another famous potter, who won yesterday's challenge with his speedy answer. Of course, the answer to yesterday's Famous Potter Challenge #2 was the delightful Jenny Mendes.
I got to meet Jenny while visiting Penland a couple of years ago. She was working in the studio there and she paused to chat with my me and my pottery pals. Brought back this little bowl and it reminds me of the fun time we had. I love it.

What's this guys name, is it Nick Joerling?
Hey, I am always so impressed how you are up at 5-6 am California time, reading my blog...wow. You're the best visitor!
Good luck with your back!
Nick Joerling?
This has been fun! Great idea!
Yes, Gary and Emily - It's Nick himself! Thanks for chiming in!
His pieces are so characteristic. My husband and I got to take a workshop at Arrowmont that he team-taught with Lana Wilson.
We won (yes, WON!) one of his teapots in a drawing. It's a treasure and has such a personality. Kinda dances up on our display case.
OK, next challenge is going to have to be lots harder!
Well I'm not first -- but it's definitely Nick Joerling. What a great mug.
Hi Patricia! Thanks for stopping by my blog. Watershed has been such a great experience for me; I just love sharing it with everyone.
I like your "Famous Potter Challenge" idea...a nice way to get a dialogue going, and show people some great pots!
I would like to watch how he whacks that cup into that shape...
absolutely no idea on any of them..but thanks for the educational tour of your local clay workers..
Nick Joerling!!! Hit me with another! I just found this posts and I didn't read the other responders until AFTER I know... go ahead... HIT me!
What a fun challenge! Hope you do some more!
For some reason my comment(s), tried twice yesterday, didn't come across. Trying again.
oops, guess it worked today, anyway I'm learning a lot about famous potters, thx.
It is interesting to learn about what other potters are doing. Famous Potter Challenge is a great idea!
Thanks everybody who has made a guess at this. I think it wasn't tough enough... I'll come up with a toughie for tomorrow!!!
