I'm posting this for my buddy Mike Carroll who is bringing Tony C in for a
workshop next month...


Aug 4 and 5, 2007

Tony Clennell - Pots Only a Mudder Could Love
Avon NY, just south of Rochester.
The focus of workshop will be on the making individual pottery for
occasional use. The work completed during the 2 day workshop will include
large jugs, Texan sized casseroles and bowls, teapots, cups, buckets and
baskets. Tony has developed a method of making pots in pieces that gives an
articulated shape while making it easier to handle larger amounts of clay.
Handles, lugs altering, cutting and surface embellishment are a big
component of this workshop. Participants are asked to bring along one of
their pieces or a favorite piece for a group or solo critique. This can lead
to important dialogue of why potters like the pots that they do, hence the
title Pots Only a Mudder Could Love. The fee will be $160 which includes
the workshop and lunch Saturday and Sunday. For more information go to
http://www.studiosalespottery.com/classes.htm or contact Mike at
585-226-3030 or mike@studiosalespottery.com


Should be a good one!
Best,

Thanks Dick for the plug. I'm hoping to hang out with
you at some point that weekend. Your method of
throwing bowls in a mold has got me intrigued again
especially with this texture work I'm now doing. So
I'm coming to visit and maybe you'll join us for
cocktails and dinner.
I realize August is a hard month to draw a crowd with
cottages, holidays, potters craft fairs and such but
it was about the ony time Mike could nail me down. I'm
on the road again to China in Sept. /Details in
another post.
Thanks and I can't wait to swap tales and lies with
ya.
Best,
Tony
