Sensei's studio was buzzing with activity. We had 15 one day challenge guests before lunch. It was my pleasure to stay and help get the studio ready and then assist any way I could. I helped wedge clay, center for the challengers, set up slabs for a guest, and then clean at the end. This challenge is definitely something I want to incorporate I to my studio. It helps bring in income as well as spreading the love and joy for ceramics.
In the afternoon Sensei had more one day challenge guests, but Megumi took the group of us from the program to a studio to visit. The work was absolutely amazing and I had actually walked past with out knowing it before. The outside of the studio and house are totally uninformative to how the inside is. It was a pleasant surprise. The artist was actually Megumi's technical Sensei from school and he is an amazing artist utilizing pinching, coiling, and throwing techniques.
Since Megumi needed to get back to the studio to help Sensei, the group of us walked back to Kasen and took a couple tide trails through the bamboo forest. It was a great time as always. It was Cheuky and Kuan's last day at the studio so I'm glad we got one last adventure in. Soon I will be leaving too and I am sad to go but am very excited to bring to practice everything I have absorbed from Sensei and Kasen Studio.
