The Party’s Over (Nov. 13)

Or..only just beginning, depending on your point of view.

So..Clayquest has ended and I’m in my hotel room, pretty well rested for a change. Yeah!

I am so…recharged..joyful…there aren’t enough words. I’ve taken classes with some of the best and brightest in the polymer clay/mixed media world. I’ve seen demos by Lisa Pavelka , Donna Kato and Rob Yost . I’ve made some new friends – and not just ‘we took a class together’ friends, but people that I really feel will be with me for a long time to come. I got to ‘talk clay’ with some of the most amazing teachers and clayers: Julia Sober , Louise Cozzi , Barbara McGuire , Marla Frankenberg , Lynne Ann Schwarzenberg, Jana Roberts Benzon , Jeffrey Dever (see link in previous blog entry)- not to mention all the wonderfully creative people in my classes.

Anyways – I have so much more to write, but right now I’m going to get dressed and get out of here to go home!!

  1. Hiya Barbara!!! I was working on my website, and saw that someone had linked me from this site….so I clicked on it to see what it was. What a nice surprise!

    I had such a blast too, at Clay Quest. I loved meeting all the folks I’ve only corresponded with via email and PCC. I have been so busy with articles, teaching prep, etc., that I haven’t had much chance to implement anything I learned. I’ll get there, but it makes me a crazy woman when I don’t get to clay. My brain gets foggy and I kinda become a walking nerve ending (g).

    Anywho, let’s stay in touch….I so loved meeting you! And, again, LOVE the story of your little one waiting for you on the porch and alerting the dogs that mama was home…

    hugs,

  2. Hey roomie — I emailed you from one of the lists — you were introducing yourself, and got slapped back that I shouldn’t send personal emails through the list. Too weird, each list is so different. Haven’t done much clay since the holidays, but am revved up to go again. Did you ever finish your LFCozzi piece from Clay Quest? xo, nt
