Very cool! I'll visit him when I go to OR in two weeks. I've been making Mata Ortiz
- style brushes from my own hair (human?) since I saw a Juan Quezada workshop
several weeks ago. So now I'm interested in brushes and brush making. I'm teaching
a bisque/ greenware painting class of LOLs at Camp Verde Parks and Recreation and I
figure the way to get them moving out of their "comfort zone" is to get them
pouring their own slips, making their own molds, making their own glazes, and
then.... making things with real, live, clay. Some of them are talented with brush
decoration and I'm curious to see what happens if I expand their world a bit. Plus,
they've got me working on improving my brushwork - something I've neglected for the
last 25 years.

I always knew teaching was work, but now I'm discovering that it's FUN.

Too soon old, too late smart,

Roger
