I attended this workshop and am so pleased with all I have learned. I would
encourage anyone interested, to attend a future workshop with Rick
Mahaffey. I asked tons of questions about the workshop techniques and other
areas that were not part of the workshop and Rick was generous with his
knowledge answering and drawing diagrams to help me on my way. I can now
throw large pieces with confidence and I love my saggar fired work. Thank
you Rick. Btw... those large pieces that I finished throwing yesterday made
it safely home.
