Early in my career as an Adjunct at Sheridan College School of Craft and Design I taught a young woman Lauren Blakey. Lauren went on to Nova Scotia School of Craft and Design for her BFA and voila almost 2 decades later we are showing together. Damn this all makes me feel proud. I hope she doesn't hate me for encouraging to a clay artist.

Lauren Blakey- God, what a wall that would make here at The Cactus Lounge. |

Lauren Blakey-Awesome tiles. |
Not sure if I can claim Ottawa's Jen Drysdale as a student but the wood fire mentorship of almost 5 years ago set her on a course that is most gratifying for me to witness. Jen approaches clay with this in mind- I want to make better pots!!!!!. It's not about I want to make more money, I want to take short cuts. Simply put- I want to make better pots!!!!!!!! Well y'all be the judge.

Jen Drysdale - ewer and saucer. Oh baby that's sweet! |

Jen Drysdale- Dancing bowl. Pots living on the edge of collapse are best. |
As a young potter I was first introduced to a Japanese aesthetic by the stoneware of John Ikeda. I lost touch with John and he went off on a very bright colourful abstract impressionist very tight and precise form of work. So now I hear John is back at the wood kiln. Looking forward to seeing John and his work. Maybe I can talk some sense into him.

John Ikeda- tea bowls/chawans |
John Ikeda- whisking us away.

I wouldn't have believed him if he didn't get back with proof because I so much trusted my boyfriend and loved him, why I log in to the mobile spy anonymous monitor I saw for myself that he was without another Lady in Maryland, USA. I then see all conversations and WhatsApp voice records with his boss. Well, All thanks to Wizard Brixton though it actually hurts to know the truth his services I highly recommend and he is very active and fast with a sense of humor. Do reach him today for similar cases and loss of funds. He also retrieves my funds back

I went to Central Tech's Art Dept. and ended up with my own Picture Framing business as a result of having been to CTS Art Dept. I don't know what all these comments are about !?!
Happenings are as they are.
As Bob Ross once said to a mouthy student. ''Shut your mouth and give your ass a chance''.
After CTS I went back to my first job as an architectural draughtsman. An art in its self.
