You know Mike, the Italians got the noodle from Asia...hahaha! Good to see you smiling and happily surrounded by food!! Really though, looks like a great experience. Hope it continues.

Now that you mention the Museum, I have an idea : ) This December we are opening an exhibit called Eye to the East: The Turner Collection of Chinese Art, which will run through May 2009. This exhibition will highlight the more than 80 pieces of Asian sculpture and ceramics, spanning more than 3000 years, donated to the museum by Dr. Robert Y. Turner. While the majority of the show will trace the development of Chinese art, also included will be a few examples of Japanese ceramics. Guest Curator, Don Wood, Chief Curator and Curator of Asian Art, The Birmingham Museum of Art. I know you said you would return from your sabbatical in January. Would you be interested in doing a short demo for a group of special members here at the Museum in late February. You could speak about your travels to Taiwan, their culture, what you learned and create a few demo pieces for our guests. I spoke with our Programs Coordinator and she thought it was a great idea - just let me know. The end of February, like on a Friday afternoon would work - possibly Feb. 20th? I always enjoyed your demos and lectures and know our members' would enjoy it as well. I'm actually teaching an adult ceramics class here in Janaury too! I look forward to hearing from you Mike - take care! Meagan

Just heard about the new Center for Visual Arts that The Boudreaux Group in Columbia is designing. I'm very excited for Clemson and hope to support this project however I can!
Congratulations Top Dawg!!
Sounds like the program is doing really well. We're out here representing Clemson in the Pacific NW. Got a couple shows lined up and making more work. Hope you're doing well and keep in touch.

I can't come to any of the First Friday stuff, nor be present at my own studio because I'm going to Jenny and Courtney's reception out here at school. They're my peps! I wouldn't miss it for the world. Can't be in two places at once, though I've tri…
Blue is sometimes not an easy color to make.
Blue pigments of the past have often been expensive (ultramarine blue was made from the gemstone lapis lazuli, ground up), poisonous (cobalt blue is a possible carcinogen and Prussian blue, another well-…
