We packed up our tools, ordered clay, grabbed our dog Rudy, and headed west. I was nervous about leaving my studio for three months but was drawn to find out what we would learn. We had a great private studio where we worked in a variety of clay bodies, new glazes, and explored making sculpture, and functional ware. We made pots alongside other ceramic artists with a variety of experience, from beginners to seasoned potters. We met Vergil Ortiz, a Cochiti Pueblo native and Indian Arts and Culture’s Living Treasure and Gus Smith, a 26-year-old potter from Phoenix, who became our soda firing mentor. We worked with primitive-saggar firing, atmospheric soda firing, raku and gas fired kilns, underglazes, terra sigillate and other surface treatments. We loved it! I was over-the-moon inspired by the abundance of opportunities in one place. continued on page 14> 12 ART ESCAPE 2023

With a current resurgence of interest in abstract art, Susan has stepped up her decades of experimentation with color and texture to combine new materials into her acrylic paintings that are inspired by living in the Peninsula’s natural beauty: bark, rocks, pebbles, driftwood, grasses, plant stems, and more. Susan has created a series of paintings about climate change that are meant to provide messages about the trees, forest, beaches, water, lake, oceans, birds, and more.

John , whose painting name is J.R. Lince-Hopkins, is known especially for his cloud paintings, but has also used the inspiration of sunsets and sunrises over the lake, birds, trees, and bumblebees as subject matter for his paintings since coming to the Bayfield Peninsula. His art can be seen as large public art on two Washburn buildings, and as a centerpiece in a garden space open to the public in downtown Washburn. As a biologist he transforms the observations of a scientist into carefully crafted, beautiful art about the environment.
