Pitch Bowl

It was difficult...
hated to stop...
but, I brought my pitch bowl into the house


in order pack off to Haystack Mountain School of Crafts...
where I will meet up with it and my tools
in order to take the class taught by
Kirsten Skiles.
Marcia Lewis, of
ChasingMetal.com told me I'm going to learn a lot from her.
(she says "Hi" Kirsten!)
I guess I could keep figuring it out myself....
but, taking this class will speed things up for me...
answer lots of questions...
and who knows what all.

I'm leaving this one in the pitch
because I want to know if there are tools I can learn to make
that will do some things I can't do right now...
so it's coming with me.

It is an odd feeling, though, sending my tools off to "camp"....
but, I'll be busy...
there's a woodcut to work on...
another to start...
a painting to complete...
a couple drawings to finish....
I'll still be arting.
