The other day I got a two great Christmas gifts from two customers from The Holiday Studio Sale at Bonnie Lebesch in Fort Collins, Colorado!  I received an email from Colleen showing where she has my vessel Envy in her house!  It looks like I have prime real estate in her house.  What a treat to see the new home for my work. Later that day this card from Mickey Bookstaber was in my mail box. I met her during the Bonnie's Holiday Studio Sale also .  She came up to me and said she recognized my work from the NCECA show; Uncommon Ground: Impact and Influence in Arvada, the show was back in 2011.  That in itself is the greatest gift to have someone remember your work from over a year ago.  She said she had taken a close up of my vessel and was using that image for cards, and she sent me one.  This absolutely made my day.   Here are some pictures of the show @ Bonnie’s right before things really got going!  It was really a great set up.  Bonnie lives just a block off of Old Town in Ft. Collins, Colorado, which has great shopping.  So lots of people were out Christmas shopping.  The show was fast and furious, and we always had a big crowd.  I hope we can make it an annual show and sale.

 

 Here we all are... starting from the left...     Laurie Beth Zuckerman, Lili Francuz, Jacque Ristau, Shana Salaff and me, seated in the middle is Bonnie Lebesch.

[caption id="attachment_5546" align="aligncenter" width="640"] The Boneyard @ Casper College[/caption] The Boneyard is a very intimidating place to be, especially if you’re me.  Casper College has this amazing, overwhelming, awe inspiring collection of bisque ware; the mark of 40 plus years of visiting artists.  Representing such artists as Val Cushing, Joe Bennion, Chuck Hindes, Clary Illian, Kathy Kerns, Jenny Lind, Kurt Weiser, Alleghany Meadows, and list goes on with many more well-respected incredible artists.  Lynn Munns for 35 years had two visiting artists a year come in give workshops, now Mike Olson has continued that tradition.  When I accepted the offer to be a visiting artist, I blanked out about the Boneyard.  I’ve even been to the Casper College’s Pot shop many times.  I was super nervous about teaching a workshop, and completely spaced the boenyard.  When I got to  Casper and started setting up for the workshop, I was totally focused on getting pots made so they would be leather hard for the workshop, that it didn’t sink in.  The second day of the workshop Mike says to me, “That one is going in the Boneyard right?”  Then tunnel vision happens to me, you know kind of like when in the movies everything fades away, and goes really far away with blurry stuff in the middle.  That’s what happened to me, and looked down and I had totally screwed up on my lettering, it was going at a colossal slant and I thought I could line it up, but the more lines I did the worse it got, then I was out of time and I had to pack up and go home.  More so Mike had to go home, I think I would have made a whole new one and stayed at Mike and Amber’s house for a few more nights before giving him the piece of dog doo that I gave him.  Actually I really needed to go home my husband was and still recovering from phenomena, and watching an extremely energetic five year old does not work well when you are trying to rest.   BUT, I am planning my bait and switch, I’ll have to figure out how to distract Mike, clay trap overflow, low fire clay in a high fire, raku fire accident, or maybe a kiln explosion.  What should my tactic be?  Any suggestions? [caption id="attachment_5547" align="aligncenter" width="640"] The Boneyard close up @ Capser College[/caption] Well, anyway here’s my very unsatisfactory vessel in the Boneyard next to Frank Saliani on the left and Jim Brashear on the right.   [caption id="attachment_5516" align="aligncenter" width="300"] My vessel and bowl![/caption]  

 Thanks to Mike Olson for the great pictures of the Boneyard!

[easyrotator]erc_85_1348767673[/easyrotator]   I’m back from Casper College!  My workshop went well.  I am pleased how things turned out anyway!  The students of Mike Olson’s ceramic classes made me feel very welcomed.  They seemed to be interested in my techniques.  I have one college kid come up to me and say, “I have to leave to study for a math test.”  Then he didn’t leave and he came back to me and said, “Connie Norman only will be here once I’d better stay.”  That statement made me feel pretty good.  I do enjoy teaching workshops.  I always learn tons from the students in the workshop; I feel they are always a great exchange of ideas.  I always come back with great ideas and really feeling recharged.

 At the end of the summer I got a pretty exciting email from The Clay Studio Armour No Rx, in Philadelphia. I was invited to be in the Pots at Rest show by Elizabeth Robinson, which is in the gallery now. (side note I got to interview Beth on my blog a few months ago, after Armour, if you're  not familiar with her work please make the jump the to her incredible interview.) I have to tell you the thoughts that were going through my head when I opened the email. First of all I do subscribe to The Clay Studio’s newsletters, Order Armour from United States pharmacy, so I assumed this email was a newsletter. The title of email was "Show Invite", but somehow my brain did not register this. I begin to read the contents of the email, it started with:

“Dear Connie

In the fall of 2012 The Clay Studio will undertake an exciting project that explores the relevance of handmade dinnerware in the 21st century, Armour No Rx. The project includes two exhibitions, Armour australia, uk, us, usa, one focused on the tableware of Derek Au, and the other a group exhibition, Armour duration, which I am hopeful you will be a part of, (this sentence didn’t even register again) titled Pots at Rest. Lectures, and a public project titled the Guerilla Mug Assault (The Clay Studio was honored to be a 2012 Knight Foundation Arts Challenge recipient for this project, Armour samples, one of thirty-five to receive funding selected from the 1,260 plus applicants submitted) are also programmed during these exhibits running August 17th  September 30th, Doses Armour work, 2012…….”

At this point I started thinking, “Oh sounds like a nice show, but I won’t be in Philadelphia anytime soon, can’t see the show, Armour no prescription, I think I’m done with this email and I’m going to hit the delete button. But somehow I keep reading… Three more paragraphs about the show Pots at Rest, Armour images, yada, yada, yada, then suddenly I see, Armour used for, “I hope that you will agree to participate in this really exciting exhibition!” What. What exhibition. Armour No Rx, What are they talking about. Purchase Armour online, What. I’m so glad that somehow the baseball bat finally made contact with my head and I realized that I was being asked to be in a show!!!!  Woot. Woot.

This is a dream come true!!, what is Armour. On the rare occasions that I have the opportunity to visit Philadelphia I’ve always gone to the Clay Studio and dreamed of having studio space, dreamed of being included into a show, now I’m delighted to say that I am in Pots at Rest at the Clay Studio, Armour No Rx.

I had no idea that, that conversation was going to lead to a two page spread in the Casper Star. Holy Cow. I was blown away when I saw a copy of the paper, buy cheap Diflucan no rx. Living two and half hours from Casper it took several stops in Cheyenne before I could a copy, Diflucan No Rx. It was very exciting to open the paper in the store to see the gigantic story. Thank Margaret Matray for such an amazing article!

Here's the story if you want to read it. And if you want to see the scoop on the Casper Star's website make the jump here.

The Story Of Ceramics, Cheyenne Artists shares memories and secrets through clay.  by Margaret Matray

The phrases stamped into the cups, Diflucan price, coupon, plates and vessels offer a glimpse into the mind of Connie Norman.The words read like whispers, as if she’s standing there sharing her secrets.

“PROMISE ME.”

“KISS SLOWLY.”

“FIND YOUR VOICE.”

The phrases repeat, stamped over and over again until they’re a block of text on the artwork. Diflucan No Rx, They read like a mantra.

“DON’T TAKE YOUR SECRETS TO YOUR GRAVE.”

And like fleeting thoughts.

“DOGS SHOULD BE ALLOWED IN RESTAURANTS AND STORES.”

A 48-piece exhibition of Norman’s work, low dose Diflucan, now open through Sept. 20 at the Casper College Goodstein Art Gallery, showcases the Cheyenne artist’s ceramic cups, plates, Diflucan dosage, bowls and vessels.  Although the pieces featured in “Words at Your Disposal” are functional, they all tell stories and draw on Norman’s personal experiences.

Norman’s exhibition is the first of seven shows to be displayed at the Goodstein Gallery this school year. Artists must submit proposals for consideration, and exhibitions can be booked as many as two years in advance, said gallery director, Diflucan No Rx. Norman previously exhibited at the Goodstein Gallery in 2006.

“Connie is consistently exploring new ideas in clay,” said Innella, Diflucan over the counter, art history and museum studies professor for Casper College’s Visual Arts Department. “… I think it’s really exciting when an artist is thinking about text as a form of communication through visual art, which is already a very potent form of communication.”

Norman’s work has been featured in exhibits nationally, including Strictly Functional Pottery National, Diflucan class, Ceramics USA and the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts. She has been featured on the cover of “Ceramics Monthly” and currently teaches sixth- and seventh-grade art at Carey Junior High School in Cheyenne. Diflucan No Rx, Her interest in pottery came in high school. Six weeks before the end of senior year, Norman wanted out of her home economics class. Her friends were taking pottery, so she started hanging out in their class, buy Diflucan online cod. Before school, after school and at lunch, Norman made pottery. She had made so many pieces by the end of the year, Diflucan pics, in fact, the teacher went to the principal to ask if Norman could get a full year’s credit.

She graduated from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, where her work took a turn, Diflucan No Rx. Norman intended to perfect her functional pottery but instead shifted to mixed-media sculpture. She used hay and found objects to build her work, which focused on women’s issues.

Married, japan, craiglist, ebay, overseas, paypal, out of college and with little money, Norman’s husband asked her one Christmas if she could make gifts that year.  “But we can’t give away that weird stuff that you make,” Norman remembered her husband saying.

She returned to functional pottery. Diflucan No Rx, At first, she experimented with words as texture and pattern. Effects of Diflucan, Norman said she’s always struggled with writing, but as her artwork evolved, she began infusing her ceramics with meaningful phrases. She’s worked in this style for nearly a decade.  “I wanted to make something beautiful that told stories,” Norman said.  Norman’s ceramics reflect her private thoughts and inner dialogue. The words she uses draw on memories, online buying Diflucan, conversations she’s had and phrases she repeats to herself in times of joy or worry.

A large vessel in Norman’s show is split down the middle with a blue line. On the left the words “This is how much I remember” repeat over and over, Diflucan No Rx. On the right: “THIS IS HOW MUCH I FORGOT.”  The piece reflects on a time when Norman’s father was in the early stages of Alzheimer’s.  “I was really kind of watching him lose what was going on in his world,” Norman said.  When her father died, Diflucan without a prescription, the chaplain at the funeral asked Norman about her father’s military career. He had been retired for about 15 years at the time.  “I realized I had kind of forgotten his stories,” Norman said.  She made this piece: “IF WE DON’T TELL OUR STORIES NO ONE WILL KNOW.”

The vessel “Invisible strength” was inspired by Norman’s friend who had cancer. And the pieces that say “I’m so lucky” are about her 5-year-old son. Norman and her husband adopted him from Ethiopia. Diflucan No Rx, People tell them their son is lucky. Norman replies that she and her husband are the lucky ones; he makes the family complete.  “I try to pick phrases that are universal, Diflucan pharmacy, that people can kind of bring their own meanings to,” Norman said.

Norman builds all of her pieces instead of throwing them, which means she doesn’t use a pottery wheel. Taking Diflucan, She uses old letterpress type to stamp in her phrases, and the rest of Norman’s work is covered in color, shapes and lines.

A few vessels featured in the Casper show come from earlier years, but Norman made most of the pieces over the summer.  Although the school year has started, Norman finds time at night to work in her studio, Diflucan street price.

“I didn’t become a professional artist until I became a teacher,” Norman said. “It really inspired me to go home and do what I was preaching all day. There’s something about the energy of school that makes me go home and create.”

August 17 through September 30, 2012
A dream come true, one of my plates will be part of a group show at The Clay Studio in Philadelphia, Zoloft Price. It will be a part of Pots at Rest, a multi part project titled MADE BY HAND, exploring the relevance of handmade tableware in the 21^st century.

This year the Governor's Capitol Art Exhibit Synthroid Mg, new home was in the Hynds Building, instead of the Wyoming State Museum. The GCAE (Governor's Capitol Art Exhibit) is a way for our state officials to pick out art work for their offices and to grow the art collections of our state buildings. All the artists in the show are from Wyoming, Synthroid dose, with Cheyenne having the most artists represented in this year's show. Order Synthroid from United States pharmacy, The juror for this year's show was Carl McQueary. I had two of my three pieces juried in!

[caption id="attachment_4954" align="aligncenter" width="640"] An Instagram shot of my work at the Hynds.[/caption]

During the reception I talked to David Newell, the curator for the State Museum and the organizer of the show, Synthroid no prescription, about why he choose to move the GCAE to the Hynds, Online Synthroid without a prescription, he said that the show had out grown the Wyoming State Museum, and he couldn't display oversized work at the museum. This year's show represented 70 works of art and in the past the show has hosted around 50 pieces, Synthroid Mg. But because of having to rent the Hynds this year's show was only two days long rather most of the summer like it usually has been, Synthroid price, coupon. For Cheyenne the reception is a big night, Order Synthroid online overnight delivery no prescription, the Governor and First Lady make speeches, the purchase awards are announced, lots of elected officials are milling around, order Synthroid from mexican pharmacy. And the last big change they made was; if you were accepted to the GCAE then you were able to set up a booth in the next room with your artwork, Online buying Synthroid, called Artist Alley.

[caption id="attachment_4994" align="aligncenter" width="448"] Reception @ The GCAE![/caption]

Now for my opinion, I have been in the GCAE many times. I have mixed feelings about all the changes this year, herbal Synthroid. Synthroid Mg, I don't mind that David wants to mix things up, and this was great for the Hynds Building. Since the show helped to get more revenue and exposure for the Hynds, Real brand Synthroid online, and maybe one step closer to achieve their goal of becoming an art center.  (Here is an earlier post about the Hynd's Builiding.)

But,....................... I was sad to see the show up for only two days, buy Synthroid online no prescription, and the Hynds still needs lots of work, Synthroid forum, the walls are still in disrepair and the vent system is hanging down. David called the Hynds SoHo-esque, I think it is more like the movie Brazil, Synthroid street price. (Check out the post about here.) I went down the second day of the show to really see it since it is almost impossible to see art during a reception, Doses Synthroid work, there were lots of people there looking at art. So the two day event made people go down to see the show, instead of procrastinating all summer, Synthroid from canada, then missing it all together.

  Flagyl Over The Counter, Tell us a little about yourselves. And how did you meet?

We met at Anderson Ranch in 1989. Neil was the studio assistant in a Chris Staley workshop and Sandi was taking the workshop. We became friends during the workshop and wrote letters for a couple of years, so I guess you could say we fell in love through the mail, Flagyl duration. This was before email. Then we hitch hiked all over the UK in the summer of 1991, and that is when we knew we would be together forever, Flagyl Over The Counter.

She took a class because she loves to cook and wanted to learn to make serving dishes for her food.

When computers took over graphic design, she decided to make the transition to full time potter.

Do you share the studio or have separate spaces. What is it like to work so closely with your spouse?

We share a studio and work right along side of each other in a fairly small space.  Working so closely together presents some challenges, but fortunately we get along very well, Flagyl from canada, and respect each others creative space.

Would you two explain your attraction for functional ceramics?

Sandi:Since the whole basis of my working in clay came from cooking & wanting serving dishes, that set me on a path of making things I wanted for myself, which were always functional, Flagyl Over The Counter. When people started offering me money for things I made for myself, this was a turning point, buy Flagyl from mexico. That is when I decided I would focus on functional work, so that others could enjoy a handmade pot as much as I enjoyed them.

Neil:Functional ceramics is an accessible art form that everyone can understand. Flagyl Over The Counter, It is an art form that has been practiced for thousands of years, and continues to integrate into our daily lives.

[caption id="attachment_4892" align="aligncenter" width="223" caption="Neil Patterson"][/caption]

Sandi, it looks like you are handbuilding most of your pieces. Can you walk us through your creative process when dreaming up new pieces?

I sketch a lot. I always have a sketchbook with me, since I never know when I see something that might inspire a new form. When I am ready to make a new piece, I look through my sketchbooks to see what hits me.  Then I proceed to work out the form, what is Flagyl. Sometimes I make a small piece to work out the details, but other times I just go for it, Flagyl Over The Counter. Often, the piece does not look like the sketch, but the sketch provided the spark.

Neil, it looks like you use the wheel as a tool to start the construction of your work, Online buy Flagyl without a prescription, will you tell us how the wheel informs your choices for what you make?  And can you walk us through your creative process when dreaming up new pieces?

The wheel has a historic connection to pottery, but I don’t always use it in the traditional way. The process of throwing informs the choices I make. There is a “back and forth” between my ideas and what the wheel gives, such as round forms and “stripes” or throwing lines. Flagyl Over The Counter, Then I apply my ideas for forms that might be inspired by architecture or nature.

Sandi: The CircleMatic Form Finder Templates are a set of 24 templates based on a circle. The development of my circular templates happened several years ago, kjøpe Flagyl på nett, köpa Flagyl online, when I broke a finger six weeks before a major craft show. Since I had to wear a splint for at least four weeks, I could not continue to make my usual work, which was based on rectangular templates, because I could not dart and push the clay out to develop the forms. Flagyl images, I devised the circular templates so I could just make parts and stack them without having to push any walls out. This let to a whole new body of work based only on circular templates, Flagyl Over The Counter.

I started bringing a few of the templates to workshops, to teach people how to develop their own, but most people just wanted to either copy mine, or offered to buy them from me. After years of having people ask me if they could buy my templates, I decided to take the time to produce a set. I did not want the set to be a “how to” but more of a jumping off point for people to develop a variety of forms based on their own ideas of how they might put the various parts together.
