I got a 'buzz' this morning when I found that Carole Epp at her Musing About Mud blog gave me a bit of a mention early last month. Thank you Carole. Carole's work was one of the first pieces I ever bought for my small 'collection'. A set of stacking cups - so gorgeous I just couldn't believe I was going to be able to take them home (photo Stuart Hay, ANU Photographics).Read about that series here http://www.avicam.com/profile/hanson.php
Actually http://www.avicam.com/ is well worth tuning into if you are clay oriented. Avi Amesbury maintains this site, www.avicam.com, representing national and international ceramic artists. She edits and publishes the electronic newsletter, Ceramics this month.
Carole was one of the 'helpers' at ANU Canberra on one of my earlier stints there on the distance diploma course, which I'll complete in June 2010 all going well. She was lots of fun, frank and humble about how her work and skills developed and I didn't only admire her work enormously, which is pretty diverse in style if you go have a look .... you may have seen it in Journal of Australian Ceramics in last few years a few times. How does she get it all done, on top of being a newish Mummy? Time management is one of life's biggest mysteries to me.
Carole's blog is as 'finger on the pulse' of ceramics as it gets overall look here .... mud.blogspot.com or at her her website if you'd like to see her own work www.caroleepp.com and her etsy shop is CaroleEpp.etsy.com see what I mean?? I bet you feel your finger is on the pulse too, what did we do without the Net?
