American Craft Council, “A Potter’s Journey: Conquering Art Major Anxiety”

This is the third in a series of blog posts titled, “A Potter’s Journey.” American Craft Council and I have been working together for the past year, devising the best way to share the story of how I developed a full-time pottery career. I hope you will enjoy reading these monthly blog posts as I share my experiences with a new audience.

If you’re in the Duluth area swoop by Art in Bayfront Park tomorrow 10-6pm or Sunday 10-4pm and see my new body of work! I’ll also be performing pottery demonstrations in front of a gorgeous Lake Superior backdrop. Here is a photo from when I attended in 2012. Hope to see you there!

“A Career in Clay” by Tiffany Clements, Feature Story for the College of St. Benedict/St. John’s University

I met Tiffany many months ago at the Local Blend coffee shop. As a barista, she has first hand experience using my pottery everyday. She approached me to do a feature story for the College of St. Benedict/St. John’s University website and I am proud to share her great skills as an author and film maker. Please follow the link below and be sure to watch the quick video. Great job Tiffany!
