Sculptor Blythe Eastmen

 One of my favorite artist is clay sculptor Blythe Eastman Blythe Eastman  .  She showed with me at my studio in 2009.  We, Meadowlake Studios, filmed her for an Arts Alive show.  For one reason or another the show got stuck then forgotten in the editing bay. 
 

 
In 2019 when we were doing Arts Alive shows of some of Art Harvest Studio Tour artists I ran across Blythe's show files. Her work is fantastic.  She is able to capture complex yet subtle animal gesture with an elegant minimalist approach.  Her show need to be finished.  We posted on Arts Alive in 2019.

Arts Alive appearance talking about Pottery

On October 18th we went down to the McMinnville Community Media studio to appear on Arts Alive the local arts and culture show.  Liz talked with host Lynda Phillippi first.  I posted the video of her.  I forgot to post my interview.

We talked about clay and pottery and the Art Harvest Studio Tour, of course.  The Tour was last weekend and the second weekend is coming up.

We had students on the Student/Education Studio Tour today.  They all seemed to come at once.  It was kind of frantic for awhile.  Still fun.

Sculpture, clay working

Lum Tue Mar

   Got out in the studio today.  Not with all the kids watching, that was from the Art Harvest Studio Tour past.  No today it was raining, dark, quiet perfect for sculpture making.  I've been away from the clay for days.
   Although I am not in the Oregon Potters Association Showcase this spring I'm looking forward to going.  The Showcase always gets me excited about doing clay.  There are so many fantastic clay workers.  May 4, 5, and 6 this year at the Portland Convention Center.

My booth at Showcase last year 2011.  We stayed in Portland for the weekend.  Went out to dinner and listened to some music.  I was happy many people liked my tea bowls.
