Brown Bag 12/3/13

Our Brown Bag session tomorrow will again feature Sandi Pieratozzi. The first session last week generated a lot of interest and discussion. She presents so much information and techniques that you need to bring a notebook.

Following up on last week Karen has suggested that we make some bisqued domes to use in the studio to make feet for pieces the way Sandi presented. We'll be making them tomorrow. Check them out after the next bisque firing.

We are actively seeking new DVD's to present at our weekly Brown Bag sessions. If Santa asks you for your list, maybe you could put one or two DVD's on it for future sharing.

Monitoring assignments and open studio schedule for Dec. have been posted on our Studio Calendar. If you haven't visited it before, click this link.
