This summer has included lots of vacation travel with gallery scouting thrown in—I’m keen to find broader representation in larger urban centers. Trips to Vancouver and Montreal were helpful in giving me a better picture of the gallery scene there, and in “filling the creative well.” I’ll be following up on the research by making submissions to select galleries that struck me as a good fit… more news to (hopefully) follow on that front.

Now that I’m over the shock and disappointment of losing most of this piece when it exploded into a thousand tiny shards during firing, I think I have (once again) learned my lesson: “Do Not Rush Clay! Let it dry completely!” Because I’ve also learned the importance of “Try, Try Again!” I can promise that I will (re)make this sculpture!
