LOOK MA, I'M ON TV

A while back I posted up a picture of one of my shallow bowls being used as a prop from a national TV show which I have to admit was kind of fun. A couple of weeks ago we were flipping around the channels to finds our local news and immediately recognized another piece of pottery that I had made some while back hanging in the foreground of the interview. In this case the show is a political show on Spectrum News in which State Assemblyperson Pam Hunter (@pamelahunter128) was being interviewed and my tebori, hand carved wall bowl was over her right shoulder on the wall. Considering Assemblyperson Hunter's district is around Syracuse, NY, I am assuming the bowl was purchased at Eureka Gallery before it closed or at Mixed Methods somewhat more recently. I realize this is no big deal really but it was kind of nice to see the piece prominently displayed in her work or home office. Now if only I can figure out how to sneak a pot in to the living quarters of the International Space Station, I am pretty sure I would get some bragging rights with that accomplishment.
