Previous Workshops and Demos:
Clay Arts Vegas, Las Vegas, NV April 2017
If you ever have a chance to go to Clay Arts Vegas, do it! They bring in fantastic artists for workshops and the students are wonderful. Thom and Peter are so great and a joy to work with, as well as the other members of what I will forever refer to as "my vegas family." This workshop was a 2 day class featuring throwing, slip trailing, painting, and more. The students did such a great job bringing their creativity and fun ideas.
NCECA Portland, OR March 2017 - Amaco Demo
I gotta tell you, the people at Amaco are seriously the BEST. I had an amazing time and a huge growth in my work from my NCECA trip and my demo for Amaco was an experience I'll never forget. Big thanks to Stephen, Arielle, and Tracy for all of their help and inviting me to demo. I also had the awesome luck to get to demo 2 days along side Mark Errol and he. is. a. treasure. He has such a fantastic teacher. Check out his work and his gallery, Plough Gallery, in Georgia.
