My daughter and I and an LVA opening reception. I’m not sure who took this photo, but it’s up on the LVA website on the page where you sign up for their newsletter.
Ok, I know. It’s been a while – this blog hasn’t been updated by anyone (me) in a very long time. The irony is that my advanced students in ceramics at IUS Ceramics are required to maintain a weekly blog of their progress in the studio. Each week, they write and post pictures about whatever progress they’ve seen in their studios that week. We understand and appreciate that “progress” can mean many things – sometimes it’s great finished work, but often progress comes in the form of pieces that are duds, failures, experiments, and idea generation. My students archive it and write about it each week. They absolutely love it .. well, maybe not “love” it. I say they love it, and they say they don’t (we agree to disagree on that particular point).
Anyway, while I often tout the benefits of writing about your work, I realized that I wasn’t following my own teachings. I’ve neglected this practice and let my blog lapse (albeit, only for 9 years). But still! In any event, I decided to practice what I preach and breathe new life into my blog.
I will now attempt to write more often than once every 9 years.
Thanks for reading!
