David, I know you would be proud of me...only a semester to go to finish my Master's degree. Today, you were on your mind, and I could hear your guidance as I worked on the pottery wheel. Hopefully someday I can throw as well as you. (Not sure I can, but I'll keep trying!) Miss you, my friend.

Dave, really missing you lately! Thank you for being such an amazing friend and mentor. You don't know how many times I wish I could ask you questions that pop into my head, or have you problem-solve my clay dilemmas. But when I get most frustrated, I say a prayer, and can just feel your calm...I know you are still helping me.

Not the AEI we used to go to together, but you'd be even prouder of my grad school. Here is my week of work. Miss you Dave, but I really feel like you were helping me a long when I pushed myself too hard this week. And yes, I know if I worked on it more, I could throw mugs faster on the wheel. 😂

Finally had Thad make a stand (recycled guitar stand) for Dave's giant bowl I raku fired last fall. Small bowl on the right is also his, bowl on left unmarked but done with Ferric Chloride and horsehair. Love seeing these every day. ❤️

I think Dave would have enjoyed the day today! I brought some of his pottery I got down to Dakota Potters in Sioux Falls for a Raku firing workshop. Pictures don't do these bowls justice! ❤️ Forgot his vaae and the vase I made the last time we did clay together...those will be fired with his raku kiln next.

Auction tonight was tough. I have several of Dave's original artwork and pottery now, and his raku kiln and burner. Tons of pottery and art books. I have a lot of the unfinished pottery that was in his garage, and a tote of student drawings. I'll try and post on here as I sort things out so people can claim their art. ❤️ One whole box was my pottery from last summer. 😝
