A press release


I forgot to mention in August that a picture of me was published in the Excel Charter Academy Parent Handbook for this school year. My wife, works there as a Speech-Language Pathologist. Last spring I demonstrated the pottery wheel at the annual art fair.

Anticipating the residency


I am on my way, along with 9 others from the UICA clay studio, to a week long residency experience at Ox-Bow School of Art ! I am very excited. I have been making, and making, and making pots to be fired in the wood fire and gas fired kilns. Recently, I made some gigantic vases for my family. They have been drying outside in our driveway. My son, Elem, has been a good helper in trimming off the excess clay. I can't wait to see what the vases look like after being fired! Check out the Ox-Bow website listed on the left. You can find out more about where I will be.

Fulton Street Farmer's Market


Last week I spent a day at my favorite local market, the Fulton Street Farmer's Market. A corner spot on the south end was a nice place to spend the day! I plan to be at the Market several more Fridays/Saturdays this fall. Hope to see you there -- Find out more about the market at www.fultonstreetmarket.org
