OK, I know Mel has said no more glass stuff and I agree. This is a clay
forum.

I only want to say that our glass artists and our clay artists here at
Nottingham are having a great time interacting with each other. I see
many new avenues opening up for each group in their art with the
availability to use other mediums in their work.

It isn't just clay, or glass, or bronze, or wood, or stone. It is about
artistic expression using whatever medium suits the vision. If one is
a potter that is great. If one is a glass artist, that's great. If one
wants to combine mediums to create a piece that is great. It is the
final product that matters.

Excellent point Terry,

I feel that few things can benifit the Arts or occupations
of Artisans, as much as some benovelent confluences between
the Artisans themselves...and especially to visit and be
welcome in eachothers Work environs.

I will get down there one of these days!

I want to visit your center, and I missed doing so when the
'nceca' was going...

best!
