UPDATE ON THE NOVEMBER FOUND OBJECT ASSEMBLAGE
                                                       WORKSHOP
                      The workshop began promptly at 9a.m. with a good deal of enthusiasm.
       We all had a very productive day and the attendees created two pieces of very      
        competent ,attractive work using the materials they had collected. There  were
        discussions,questions , and philosophy going on all day. Here are the comments
        sent to me after the class;

                     "  My friend and I took the 7 hour Found Object Assemblage Workshop
         on Sunday, 11/18/12. As a novice sculptor, I was a bit intimidated, but, soon became
        comfortable and relaxed as Fay walked around and respectfully offered up suggestions
        and solutions.  I found this class to provide just the right balance of teacher instruction
        and, the unearthing of my own sensibilities when designing  and constructing my 
        piece. During this class, I developed a sense of style, of trust and confidence, that was 
        not there prior to the class. I loved the processes of collecting  my found objects...
        of discovery and tapping into my creative self....and then seeing my product.
        Simply stated,being inside the Clove Church Studio space was awe-inspiring;
        and then ...seeing my hands , working alongside Fay's hands...an honor."

                     I sincerely hope that I can produce this result in all the workshops 
        that are held in my studio. Here is the second response:

                 " I'm going to use Beth's word, honor. It was an honor to take your workshop, feel          
        so welcome in your special space and to have you so generously share your
        knowledge and experience with us. I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop, the day, and
        working along side you. You are a special lady and anyone who takes your workshop
        is very fortunate. I finished my sculpture  and am very happy with the outcome. It's now 
        perched in my livingroom, and anyone coming in the door will see it.
        Thank you again, Fay, it was a great workshop."
