I don't want to share the power

Here are a couple or the pieces that i made this summer in the Clay Plus One Workshop with Linda Ganstrom.  I took two classes this summer.  These are the first classes in my MFA program at FHSU.

This was an intense workshop. We had the an amazing group of highly talented people.

We learned many new techniques form molding and surface treatments. We had a treasure hunt to find found objects to incorporate into our sculptures. this was a wonderful experience as well as a great aya to kick off my new adventure at FHSU.

In both of these figures I have used encaustic wax as a new surface treatment on their clothing.
