Well I for one just had an incredibly inspiring weekend! It’s not often that Saskatoon is visited by such caliber of artist as Michael Kline. There was no way I was going to miss this workshop, hosted by the Saskatoon Potters Guild, and it definetly didn’t disappoint.
Michael lives up to the online persona that I’ve come to know in the past few years through his blog and extensive social media outreach. It was great to finally meet him in person. He is generous and incredibly gifted as an artist and teacher; technically flawless and humble as well as humorous. The weekend was filled with great technical insights into his work alongside tales of historical and contemporary aspects of working in North Carolina. To offer you a play by play of what transpired would take too long so instead I’ll leave you with some images from the weekend as well as the encouragement to attend one of his future workshops or to visit Michael should you find yourself in North Carolina.
Thanks Michael!
