I hope everyone had a wonderful summer and is ready for a creative year in Art! I had an exciting summer! I spent two weeks in Japan studying Japanese ceramics and firing methods. Here is a photo of me throwing wood in the anagama kiln we helped fire for 4 days and nights. To keep the fire hot enough we had to put wood in about every 5 minutes!
After returning from Japan I graduated with a Master of Arts degree in Art Education from Piedmont College. The trip to Japan was part of my coursework for the summer. I hope to share my new knowledge of Japan and Japanese culture and ceramics with the students at Abbotts Hill this year!
