Evolution –
We seem to be in a constant state of flux - driven by the need to stabilize an unending series of technical challenges, develop new ways to better utilize our shop space and my ceaseless addiction to maintaining an bottomless list of back-to-back projects.
One of my best sink customers - very accurately described me as a "one armed paper hanger". I am always behind and I find that I am reluctantly beginning to accept this as normal.
I am resigned to always being behind because this is what it takes to do quality work in a one-man shop. This may soon change as I engage my potter's apprentice program and then again it may not. Hand work - done well - takes a great deal of time.
