Lori I’m glad this video is helpful. Getting a new kiln is exciting. Hopefully this gives you inspiration.

Lawrence Hufty I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Mistakes are just learning the hard way. It’s all good.

@@LisaVogtglassartist I read an article a while back about a college professor in a design class that divided his students into two parts. One half was told they would receive their grade based on the number of widgets they made and the other half on the quality of the widget they made. The class that only had to made one widget did a great job and their widget was exceptional. BUT, the class that was graded on the quantity ended up with a far more superior widget. They kept improving on the design. They didn't mind making mistakes in the process because they weren't being graded on quality. Yet they made the best quality widget as they learned from their mistakes. Same with artists. Don't give up because your project failed, learn from it and move on to a better quality the next time. And that seems to be your philosophy, and I learned it loud and clear a couple of weeks ago when I took your class. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.

Lawrence Hufty that’s an amazing story and comparison. It’s true, learning is timeless. I’m glad my approach worked for you. You’ve got the heart to do great work. Keep moving forward.

@@LisaVogtglassartist LOL, yes, I've got the heart to do good work, the question becomes.... do I have the ability? Practice and time will tell. And wonderful guidance from great teachers like you. Thanks, Lisa.
