Happy Spring
Mar 23rd, 2009 by Darryl Lentz
Hi again and thanks for stopping by the ClayBlog. Spring is here… at least the calendar says so. Snow last night, frosty windows this morning… doesn’t say “spring” to me at all.
Wow we finally got a load of clay into the studio. Cindy – the sneaky bugger – just happened to show up to help unload the truck just as it was leaving. Coincidence? Ummmmmm I don’t think so. She’s a devious one, that Cindy. But, she can throw a heck of a bowl. I can’t really talk much though. I was in New Brunswick so I missed out on all the fun too. Elly had the smarts to call up Robin though so she didn’t have to do it all herself. Next time Elly, we’ll all be there… I promise.
Man oh man it was nice yesterday. Because we were running low on clay I couldn’t throw a mountain of mugs, so I pugged a 15 pound heap and had fun throwing a huge-big vase, just for a break ya know. Pretty humid over the weekend so it was nowhere near ready to trim, so I left it for Cindy to experiment on. Coolest part is finding out what she did with it when her imagination got going.
Speaking of imagination, Cindy is looking forward to another opinion about our “It Takes A Village” vase. She’s thinking about entering it in the South Korea something something as an entry from PEI. That would be very cool. If you’re familiar with that vase then you know what I’m talking about. Otherwise, I’ll have to figure out Word Press enough so I can post more pics on the site.
OK Kids… Catch you soon…
