Noteworthy Quotes
A really good pot is in the details. --Doug Casebeer at the Ceramics Workshop in Jamaica '10
There's only one way to grow while making art: take risks and allow yourself to make a lot of bad work, then look at it. I consider what is working well, what missed the mark or confused the reading, what needs to be adjusted on the next one. --Linda Arbuckle in The Penland Book of Ceramics
All great actions have been simple, and all great pictures are. --Ralph Waldo Emerson

Almost all photos are my property (even the bad ones). Please ask if you would like to copy them. Don't think anyone would, but just in case please ask. Thanks!

Holy crap! I don't get out enough! I actually knew those!

I'm impressed, Jeff!
eh, don't be! I don't get out that much lately. Plus I have an 8 year old who uses words like "pulchritudinous", which I also now know.
Jeff
Your 8-year-old sounds interesting!! Maybe I'm the one that doesn't get out much.
pearl jam? i missed the connection. help me. - big but slow...
Pearl Jam didn't write a song about the incident, they just wrote a song called "Alive" on their "Ten" album from 1991.
Enjoying your comments!
