Crazy days...

Ive been running around like crazy getting ready for tomorrow. Im going down to my old college in Greensboro to do a demo for Charlie Tefft's ceramics class. Ive never done a demo before and the idea of throwing in front of folks is kinda scary! Any ways... today I mixed up a glaze, finished the slip trailing on the jug and got a little closer to finishing the ball mill I have been working on. When I get back from Greensboro Ill do a more detailed post on the ball mill. They are really neat tools! I feel like I look in the picture below.....

Thank you all for the kind words... Its funny, when I started this appreniceship 2 years ago decorating was not an interest of mine at all. I had never done it before and terrible at it. I figured that it was Matt's thing and I would just do it to get by but now its hard for me to let a pot go with out putting something on it. Its good but really takes a huge amount of time and it would be good to do a little less sometimes...
