My apologies if emails have gone without reply, if posts have been late in coming, or I’ve dropped the ball lately here on the blog. I have good reason as we are finally moving to our new home this weekend. It’s an understatement to say that it’s been a hectic few months, but soon all will quiet down again. I thank you for your patience and understanding at times when my life gets in the way : )
If you look really closely you’ll see my kiln amongst the mess of my packed up studio. Everything is packed and ready to go, but I just had to get one last firing in. Silly artists, we never sleep!
