I have to share my fun summer plans that I recently learned about. All spring I was looking around for some short term summer residencies and after applying to a few..........
I was awarded a fully funded two week residency at the Watershed Center for the Ceramic Arts in Maine. I'll be headed up there in August during the session when Sequoia Miller is there. I'm super excited, I've always admired his work. I'm eager to have the time away to explore some new ideas, and going to Watershed has always been on my to-do list.
I'm also hoping to have time to take in some sight seeing while I'm up that way...I'm thinking of hiking along the Appalachian Trail near Katahdin or strolling along the coast at Acadia National Park. Oh, there are so many ideas!

You are gonna love Maine. Especially in August! Watershed I think, will be a great mix for you. Enjoy!!!
Congratulations! You sooo deserve this, you work so hard and your work is so great. Definitely go to Acadia if you haven't been, it's beautiful and the hiking trails are wonderful. Hope for the blueberries to still be there.
Hooray!
Hello, I am a fellow ceramics artist. Congratulations on your residency! That sounds like a blast. I have you on my blog list and I was wondering if you would put me on yours.
Thanks,

Joy - how exciting! Maine, Watershed, Sequoia Miller -- all should be great inspirations. Congrats!
Very exciting. Congratulations. It's always so nice to get out of your space and routines to work somewhere else and try different things. Good luck
I am soooo thrilled for you Joy. It is a much deserved reward for your hard work and your talent. With your love of nature, I'm sure you are going to love the rugged beauty of Maine.
Thanks everyone! You know I'll have my camera with me!

Tracey- do not miss Acadia~ we go camping there every summer for two weeks and always love it. My favorite hike is Beech Mountain, but the Beehive is always good for an adrenaline rush ;)
Watershed, Sequoia Miller, the beauty of Maine...can't wait to see what work you create there!
