Dear Joyce: For a late bloomer you have an eye for clay that never ceases
to surprise me. I was going to go on clayart and recommend that folks
visit Eric Wongs site. Eric zapped us this week and to my surprise he lurks
on Clayart.
Whenever i have spoken about Eric and his work the person responds about
what a very kind and gentle man he is. He makes lovely pots that I think
potters would like .He signed his email to us - always shino.
Sheila bought my birthday gift at Erics this spring. she said it had been
a long time since she was in a potters studio that had several things she
would have liked to purchase.
If you're lurking and blushing Eric it looks good on you. Keep up the good
work.
Cheers,
Tony
Take Joyces advice and take a trip to Erics site. Very nice pots and an
even nicer man.

So right Joyce and Tony. Wonderful pots, I'm lucky too, to have a few.
Yes, always shino.
