Pretty Mud Pies

When I was very young, an art teacher laughed at my project and informed me that I would certainly never, ever be an artist. My spirit was crushed and I would not participate in any hands-on arts for many years. Much later in life, while raising my three sons, I discovered a real love for painting, ceramics, and all sorts of art. My youngest son wanted to learn pottery so I took a class with him at the local college with Rich Sim.  After much training, contemplation, and encouragement from many wonderful artists, teachers, 3 sons, and husband since May 1986, I can confidently say that my dream is finally being realized by teaching art to Eaton high school students.  My next chapter will include throwing workshops and giving private lessons – I can’t wait!
