had a preview today of tony's new video/ throwing big.
sharlene said three times...`why don't you make pots like that?`
i smacked her three times.

it is a very nice, gentle, almost like sitting in his
studio with him video.
nice big pots, easy to do with his method, and
a great learning tool.

i sent him $3.86 american. and, will keep the video.
i may want to make his pots one day soon.
(i will do an article for claytimes on `macho` pots.)

had a wonderful stay in new mexico, and loved the teaching.
it is a good place.

Veena=20

go to Tony's web site (www.sourcherrypottery.com) and click 'contacts' - =
his phone number is there as well as his email address, telephone and =
fax numbers and even his snail mail address.
And tell him you want one.

This one's a hum-dinger! I watched it this afternoon twice....
felt like a pottery groupie. As many of you know, I learned
much of what I know about pottery from videos and, of course,
from Clayarters (who also recommended the videos). I also
(like many of you) have enough literature to keep increasing my
position on the Learning Curve for several lifetimes. I read or
watch about pottery daily in addition to keeping up with the list.=20
I try to alternate
among Current Favorite Influences regularly.

So much for that. I'm watching Tony's video exclusively for awhile....
that and reading Britt's book, and practicing what I see
over&over&over. Thanks, Tony (and to Sheila, who always=20
encourages our boy to push ahead). It's worth the wait!

Although the video is designed for creating Large Pots, the same
gems
of wisdom offer techniques needed for making smaller
pots also. I am truly excited.

In the Mojave where I met several new potters here in my own
desert this afternoon. Looks like we may be revvin' up to
start a pottery guild. If so, this will be a first for us. I've
long wanted a guild to happen. I don't need one. I have my
own space and equipment, as well as access to the clay world
through Clayart. BUT one of the original objectives of the
Potters Council (which we realized might take years to develop)=20
was to encourage the love of handmade work, and the
opportunity for potters to participate at a Grass Roots Level....
or a Sandy Soil Level ... or a Concrete Jungle level, whichever applies.

AND saying that I don't "need" a guild personally doesn't mean
that I wouldn't thoroughly enjoy and benefit from being part
of one.
