I had fun participating in this show again. If you are in the Philadelphia area then I suggest you go and check out this great collection of very small objects. You can also go onto The Clays Studio's website to view this year's show. Enjoy! http://www.theclaystudio.org/

Small Favors VIII
An Invitational and Juried Show
May 3 through June 2, 2013Harrison Gallery
Small Favors challenges and engages artist’s creativity in new and exciting ways with the challenge of making pieces for this exhibition. For some artists, the work they create is similar to what they normally make, although at a reduced scale. Others use it as an opportunity to break away from what they create in their daily studio practice. Regardless of this choice, the works exhibited are incredibly varied in material, form, and aesthetics. Though small in scale the artworks created for this exhibition are huge in impact. Each work is exhibited in a Plexiglas wall mounted cube.

Old Friend / New Collaboration
Internal Logic
(A collaboration between
Phil Haralam, Michael Schwartz, and Aristotle)
This week marked the first completed collaboration with of one of my closest friends and confidantes: Michael Schwartz. For more than 10 years, Michael and I have spent countless hours discussing the art and literature of geniuses from Gauguin to Goethe. We’ve debated classical theories of aesthetics and refined our own, challenging one another to better understand ourselves and our work. (We accomplished a surprising amount of this while also throwing darts and blasting the Rolling Stones. Like I said, we stuck to the classical.)
"Internal Logic" is the first effort of a creative partnership that we plan to continue exploring in a variety of modes and media, until as Michael says, "some combination of fame, wealth and sabotaging spouses inevitably tears us apart."
While I work primarily with form and color as a sculpture and vessel-maker, Michael’s main contribution is literacy. Able to both read and write English, Michael works as an editor and contributing writer for The Onion. For more on our intentions and process, please find the complete “Internal Logic” text below.
In addition to its presence here and Michael’s Twitter feed, @SchwartzFlash, "Internal Logic" will be on display at Gallery360 in Lancaster, Pa., from April 24-May 19 as part of its exhibition, “Literarily: Design & The Written Word.”

Terra Matter: Functional Ceramics at Gallery360
This is a preview of work that I will have at Gallery360 in Lancaster, PA for the Month of December. Stop by the First Friday opening on December 7th from 5pm-9pm.
Tellus360, 24 East King St., Lancaster, PA 17602
(717) 393-1660
Returning to Lancaster this Fall, this body of work is my response to living and working here for the past few months. This is the city where I began my career as a professional artist, a city rooted in history, and a place that continues to give me inspiration.
Exploring the city with my camera is a pastime I began over ten years ago when I first returned to Lancaster. Capturing images of architecture, streetscapes, and people often leads to discoveries like the snuff factory behind Charles Demuth’s home.
Borrowing from these walks through the city, I have combined utilitarian forms with painted images of Lancaster to create functional ceramics that reflect this interesting and historic place.
