Sunday Only: Early Bird Package on Guinness World Record Pottery

If you’ve been waiting for an awesome deal on Guinness World Record Pottery, then this Sunday’s package is for you. We’re still putting it together as pottery emerges from the kiln, but it will likely include four FREE pieces of Nuka Cobalt Pottery.

Set an alarm. Check your email at 10am CST Sunday and you won’t miss this deal. It will only be available for one day. Sorry for the short timeline, but these awesome pottery packages tend to sell quickly and we can’t continue this awesome deal if pots are sold out. This is your perfect chance to get an amazing deal on a historically famous piece of art and world history.

The rules on what is possible and what is impossible in the arts were made by people who had not tested the bounds of what is possible by going beyond them, and you can.

“What distinguishes good artistic license from bad is whether the artist acquired all access to relative information before the creativity begins. Perhaps Mark Twain said it best. ‘Get your facts first and then you can distort them as much as you please.’”

Have you caught any of our Facebook Live videos?

In just a few months, over 100,000 people from all over the world have tuned in to see the inner workings of my pottery process. Subscribe to our Facebook page here if you want a sneak peak into my studio, where you can ask questions in real time, all from your Facebook.

The next video will be tonight at 7pm CST. Hope to see you tonight! I’ll be unloading a fresh load of Cosmic Mugs and Lunar Mugs from the kiln, as well as some glaze tests of random cups. You get to see them before anyone else on the planet.

Guinness World Record Pot #1 is also available on eBay, now with the lowest possible reserve price ($160). It might sell for less than the value that the pot needs and deserves ($500 retail) but it’s more important to get it out into the world and into the home of a happy pottery collector. Plus, 20% of all profits are going to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. I would rather give them even a small donation than none at all.

Just to sweeten the deal, I’m throwing in one of my best Lunar/Moon Mugs included absolutely free to the highest bidder.

World Record Planter #1 / 159 and Certificate of Authenticity 

+ One FREE Moon Mug

That is a worthy cause. If you were considering buying a GWR planter, please consider placing a bid on this planter so your money has a bigger, better impact on our world.

Here’s my favorite Instagram series, with a painting by Clyfford Still that I’ve been pondering:

cherrico-pottery-instagram-handmade-pottery

95% of Clyfford Still’s artwork is currently stored and displayed at the Clyfford Still Museum in Denver, Colorado. After working alongside Jackson Pollock in New York City, he retreated from the public spotlight and kept the vast majority of his artwork hidden from the world. The fact that he produced such an astounding body of artwork in private gives valuable insights to what can come from a life devoted to following your own artistic voice.

“If your goal is to be universally liked and respected and understood, then, it must mean your goal is to not do something that matters.”
