Camping, kayaking, family, travel, Art in general. I have a small studio in my garage. Two electric kilns, two wheels, wedging table etc. I am primarily interested in cone 6 Ox. but like to see what is going on at all ranges. Read about ceramics voraciously and love the feel of the clay and throwing. Have to admit that my greatest joy is in the making, not the glazing. That said I do mix my own glazes, some of my own formulas, some borrowed. Retired from teaching art, in 2009 after 36 years, taught ceramics 34 of those years.
Pres; I have been thinking about you lately. Had the big talk with my wife about retiring and making pots. We can't afford it. Got to hang in there for another two years teaching high school art. Built the studio at home. Too tired to use it. Take care, Tom
