Plaza-Midwood is my favorite area of town, for sure.  Come support all the local artists and small businesses.

Rick Crown

Rick Crown is a ceramicist, sculptor, and one of my very favorite teachers ever.  His retirement party was a few weeks ago, held to honor and celebrate his 37 years as a professor at Queens University of Charlotte.  Lots of people shared fond and funny memories–we laughed and we cried.  He’s one of the warmest, most inspiring people I’ve ever met.  I feel lucky to have been his student.

I have one of Rick’s sculptures, I love this little guy:
