–if you like pottery…

Posted on July 17, 2012 by RamonaPaloma.Tile

Soozee here…I couldn’t help but want to share this story I read– It’s about a North Carolina potter who hand-built 100 huge ceramic jars in about a 3 month period of time. He then sold them all, first come-first served, in less than 20 minutes.

His story was inspiring because he made a decision to push his creative skills into unexplored territory at warp speed–somehow knowing that this extension of himself would build his abilities as an artist and… develop his character as a person.

Couldn’t we all use a little character building amongst friends?
