I'm a fan of the pottery made by Miami's Ray Morales. He writes of his work, "I make pots for the purpose of celebrating food and home. My pieces are a combination of my casual spirit and my conscious effort for good craftsmanship and design. I want my pots to be visually inviting and comfortable to the touch. The glazes I use can have subtle and dramatic variations depending on application and firing methods. I enjoy these variances and constantly work to make adjustments and to create new and interesting results. My goal is to create an aesthetic harmony between form, glaze and function."
I'm both a potter and a small-time collector. I recently added one of Ray's cups to my collection. More than any other (including my own work), I love holding and using his little piece.
And as a potter, I look to his pots as something to aspire to.
Interior design is a large universe full of ideas and inspiration. At HallReady I want to focus on a niche of design, the art of display. My goal for this blog is simple, to showcase a variety of ways to present art whether it's in the bedroom, kitchen or down the hall. Examples will include photos, paintings, taxidermy, collected objects, fun products and more. I'll look at a wide range of art, from homemade to gallery purchased, and investigate how framing, grouping, and coordinating art with surrounding objects can make a statement.
I'm Kate Shaw and I've worked as a photographer and in design magazine publishing. My love for interiors began with the gift of a book about Martha's Vineyard style when I was 12 years old. Since then I've been obsessed with all things related to art and interior design. Reach me at HALLREADYBLOG@gmail.com
