I hope to see pictures from some of your workshops in the future- as long as the students agree. I always ask if anyone does not want to be shown online. Then, with the pictures, I try to focus more on hands and work, not on faces or individual personalities. That keeps the focus on the technique and the workshop energy, so that potential students can envision themselves in that spot. I can’t imagine sloshing through all that snow!

I hope the students appreciate it all the extra effort. And doing it through all of the horrible snow we've had, ugh! I have no intention of carting my kiln to my workshops. If the Lill Street Art Center's kiln gets full, I'll torch-fire or help students torch-fire the remaining pieces.
