lurking potter in gold bar, wash.

Pat Colyar on fri 25 dec 98

Just wanted to introduce myself, after a few days of subscribing to
Clayart and poking around the archives. I teach pottery classes in
Seattle at Seward Park Art Studio, one of the three main non-profit clay
studios in the Seattle area, which will be celebrating its 30 year
anniversary next year!
My husband and I moved from Seattle to Gold Bar (about 50 miles NE, in
the Cascade foothills) last August, and I'm in the process of getting my
studio put back together so I can make pots and offer small classes up
here. I'll be building my first very own gas kiln here in the Spring, so
have been paying close attention to info about propane, brick, burners,
etc.
I can see why everybody was telling me about Clayart; it's endlessly
entertaining and informative. You'd think after 10 years of being a
mamber and Board member of a group clay studio I'd be like totally burnt
out on discussing clay but I guess not.
I'm preparing my first technical questions as we sit here...

Thanks!
Pat Colyar in Gold Bar, where it's 26 degrees and dropping.

Pat: hi and welcome to Clayart. I am a potter in East Wenatchee who
used to live in Everett and who travels through Goldbar on my way to see
in-laws in Lk Stevens. I have a link on my web page to a kiln builder
named Gil Stengel. On my main page, go down to the airplane and click.
You will be taken to a page of pottery links. Then its the link that
says "Kiln builder" or something to that effect. I hope this can be of
some use to you. By the way, if you are using MS Internet Explorer for
your browser, my links might be a little hard to see. Good luck.
