MFA degrees
Tony,
You have restored my faith in fellow potters!
I have to admit when you made the following comment in
response to my
post about the two prairie universities offering MFA degrees
my first impulse
was to get my "knickers in a knot".: You said:
"Kathy: Ya got me scratching my head. this must be sculpture
not vessels. If
it was vessels i'd know about it."
You are a very influential personality on this list...
people like to read what you say.
It's not a big deal...but it would be unfortunate for people
to believe just because
Tony C says it isn't there or doesn't know about it...it
isn't happening!!
The administrators and students of the programs would likely
be a bit offended as well.
The programs are vibrant and well respected offering both
sculptural and the more
traditional instruction you refer to. I know very little of
the NASCAD program cept
that I admire Osterman and N. Forrest's work.
I appreciate that you took the time to read and reply to the
posts I made.
Thanks for standing corrected....makes us all think about
how we post our opinions
and our information to a public list.

kathy: Thanks, I stand corrected. You know I am a prairie
boy. Born in
Medicine Hat, Alberta. My mum and brother still live in
Medicine Hat, - Big
Sky Country. Once in my twenties I worked on a farm in
Waskada, Manitoba. I
drove a big Versatile tractor. the deer, the hawks, rabbits,
and the big
sky. It was the closest i ever felt to nature in my life. I
know how it must
tear a persons heart out to loose the farm. It's beautiful
country but it's
too dang cold- you don't want me to be the Canadian Tony
Soprano do you?
We're a Zone 7 B here- Carolinian forest. i planted bamboo
yesterday.
Cheers,
Tony
