Again this spring I was asked to create the "Lupine Award Platters" given by the Maine Library Association for excellence in childrens books. I especially enjoyed hearing back from some of the authors who recieived them: to learn more about the Lupine Award go to http://www.mainelibraries.org/award/lupine.htm. I decided to teach pottery at my local Jewish day camp for two weeks this summer. I am focusing on sawdust firings, which are very different from my usual work. I find the primitive process exciting and working with the young people energizing. | ||||

Following last falls opening of The Inspired Hand3, at the University of Southern Maine/Lewiston Auburn, Atrium Art Gallery an exhibition of members of the Maine Crafts Association which was a great success and where I showed a piece from my new line of work: (The piece, titled Romaine is pictured here...) I am working on toward another show at the same gallery called "Portals" which will feature artists whose work is informed by spirituality. | ||||
