He's the Pottery Man

On Mother's Day James,Matthew, and I went for an old fashioned ride around town. We started out in Eagle Rock and then headed out toward East L.A. Since I was driving we took the back streets. I love to travel on Townsend Ave. You can see it from the 210 freeway as it snakes along a hill between Eagle Rock and Highland Park.

We passed the rise and almost passed Stratford. But something caught my eye. So we turned right and met Mario A. Cortez. He has a website where he sells pots. Potterybycc.com

To keep himself busy he tends to add another dimension to them. He is in sales, you know.

Sometimes art can be all about line and texture.

Sometimes a bit of color and a dramatic sky helps to make the sale.
