Photos from Crowders Mountain
A few images from King’s Pinacle at Crowders Mountain. My shots: Chris’ Shots It was quite a hazy day, not the best for photoing, especially not when you have to try to view image previews through a glossy LCD.

Sculpture Supplies
Today I went shopping for supplies for my sculpture project. I first went to Hobby Lobby, where I was originally in search of "Sculptamould". I found none. After a bit of browsing and amusing myself with looking at electric trains, model truck kits (btw, if anyone sees an F350 kit, please let me know), drawing […]
First Real Day In Studios
Monday was my first real day in the studios at Gaston College and I found myself in a familiar, but yet totally strange environment. First of all, there is a huge age range in the studios. The youngest student is 18, she just graduated from high school and is starting a degree in art education. […]
Eddie Kent
After spending many hours pouring over lists of artists, I selected one to discuss for my Art History II course. I selected Eddie Kent, a British potter. http://www.pots-n-things.co.uk/ I like his style, it is very simple, but at the same time has a lot of expression. His glazes are also very simple and highlight the […]
Fall 2008 End of First Week Status

Nothing worse than foreign porn
http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSPAT84665620080818 There is a new pay television station for Canada. It features pornographic films, documentaries and game shows, featuring at least 50% Canadian porn. Apparently there is significant interest in getting "local" porn. I personally find that the Germans have the best porn. It somehow comes across raw and natural, the way porn is supposed […]
