On my way to Rehoboth to teach, I stopped in the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Glad to see another work by Wharton Esherick. Named the originator of the modern crafts movement in the US, Esherick had the brilliant ability to sculpt functional objects into art.
A shaver on the last board for my upstairs ceiling. College woodworking, where I learned all of life's lessons, taught me how to construct, how to finish, using correct tools, and knowing good design. I had two teachers; I'll never forget them.
