Hi Clayarters,

I've been trying for nearly a year now to get to see an article in the April
2002 Ceramics Monthly magazine on Randy O'Brien, with no success. I see from
the Ceramics Monthly website the April 2002 issue is not available as a back
copy, and being in the UK, getting to see a current copy of Ceramics Monthly
is an achievement, let alone a back issue. I have now subscribed to Ceramics
Monthly, but would still love to see this article. Is there anyone in
clayland willing to email or post me a copy of this article? Also, does
anyone know of any plans to do a CD of the 1980's issues, as they have done
with the 50's, 60's and the 70's? I can't see any 'contact us' link on their
website to ask! Many thanks,

Ama Menec, Totnes, Devon, UK.

Hello Lea,

I got out the April 02 issue and all I found was a photo of one of his works
in the "Upfront" section, in connection with an article about the National
Crafts Competition. His name was not specifically mentioned in the article.
If you like, I can scan the page and send you a .jpg file. Let me know. off
list annsart@impulse.net

Thank you Clayarters and especially Maurice Weitman, who sent me a link to
his website with a copy of a page from the April 2002 Ceramics Monthly,
featuring a pot by Randy....no article (as I'd expected) just a photo. But
it is good to have that mystery solved! Thank you all for checking your
copies, very much appreciated.
