Wow it's been a couple of months since I posted. Two fabulous things have happened since then. First of all I bought a new Skutt 1027 kiln in April and in May I went to Alaska to visit my Sister and her family hence the pic of me on a whale in Anchorage :)
Alaska is absolutely wonderful and everyone should visit at least once. We went Halibut fishing, clam digging for Razorbacks, Hooligan fishing, camping you name it we did it! Oh I would love to move there! I met a super cool artist Jenny Dayton and bought a painting called sourpuss which makes me smile every time I look at it. I got to see my beautiful Nieces Sam graduate HS and Logan from the 8th grade. Met some new friends Robert and Michelle and saw some old friends Cheryl and Mark. Mark shot a huge brown bear while we were there and Robert got a black one after I was back in NY. I even loved the strangers that I met. Everyone is just so friendly, it reminds me of Alabama.
Back to the clay, I am firing the kiln for the 3rd time today, I am excited to get back to work on some pieces that I started before I left like the casting of Munch! I had two roadblocks since the last post but I haven't given up, she is growing however and I may not be able to do it as originally planned.
Summer is coming, will be working in the yard, Hopefully a Raku class will be in the future!
