I'm writing from the sculpture building at EMU, where hubby Jeff and I
are waiting -- wet paper salt burritos all in a row -- for ^6 to go
down. I was here at school all day yesterday glazing and meeting with
the gallery manager, and Jeff came in the evening to help me load the
kiln, brick it and set it up to candle. We ended up having burgers and
sweet potato fries at the Side track before heading to my parents'
cottage after midnight, at the lake where the kids are encamped for the
weekend.
We got up waaaay too early to head back here, and have been here all
day, firing this kiln. Early on when we could walk away from it, I took
him over to the gallery to look around, and plan for a shelf I need him
to build for me. A thousand square feet of space is kind of
intimidating.. he understands now why I have been a little freaked out.
I got my postcards in the mail and am leaving them and tacking them up
around campus. I will start mailing next week.
I set up my wheel today outside of sculpture so I can throw. My grandma
is at the lake so I will throw for her tomorrow, too... she likes to
watch. I am firing the gas kiln one last time on Tuesday... if anything
lovely comes out of either firing I can give it a pedestal.
I know Tony thinks that I should have had my show work all lined up six
months ago, but I lose interest in my old work so fast that only a few
racers survive my dismissal from one semester to the next. The best pots
are always the NEXT kilnload...
OK, back out to check the cones. I wanna go home.
Yours
Kelly in Ohio... married 18 years this weekend.. luckily to a guy who
thinks I'm "interesting" and that 18 hours standing by a kiln is fun.
This is the first time I have fired without sleet and snow! Woohoo for
warm weather!
