Locked Out (I forgot to hit the publish button last week)

Happy Monday's (November 12, 2012) everyone. I'm back from last weeks Thursday Friday Tokyo trips, and I've spent quite a chunk of time, betwixed lessons and lesson planning, organizing a portfolio for potential post Japan (if that is indeed what's in my future) ceramics studies. A more indepth explination of that weighty statement will follow in perhaps several weeks or months, but for now it will have to exist as a tantalizing tid bit of a hint of possible futures. The studio is locked, and the key in no where to be found, nor is the ever friendly Tabe Sensei. Thustly, today has been decreed a pottery free day. Yet my weird mind wonders its way to inspirations every time I sit infront of this glowing box with keys. Todays inspirations come from http://www.mckeachiejohnstonstudios.com/gallery.shtml?0001#all http://www.hopkinspottery.com/uploads/BryanHopkinsbyGlenBrownOct12Printed.pdf

Artist Statement

I really don’t know what my work is. Self exploration? My hands seem to pull new things from the clay every time I sit at the wheel. I love the rhythm and physicality inherent in working in clay. I am a self educating ceramics enthusiast seeking to heighten my understanding and skills in a field that has, I think, always held my heart. There is just something so perfect about someone sitting at a potter’s wheel, and producing something that is meant to be held! With every rotation of the wheel new shapes and desires come to me, and I can only keep growing in order to better express those sensations in my work.
