TD hits the Big Time

David Galloway

>Friends, I went to an up-scale preview party for an exhibition entitled Focus on the Southern Artist. It is a well-known show in Atlanta that attempts to raise money for a local private school. There were several turners, including Phil Mouthroup. In the midst of all this art, I found some excellent pieces turned by our own Terry Daniels. He had a few poplar bowls, but the big money vessel was a burl with significant gaps. "The more gaps, the more Gs" This bowl is going for 2K and is one of the best of the show. Congratulations Terry! As I sipped my martini, I kept looking for the "artiste" in his bib overalls...a no show! That was my only disappointment.

If you are in the Atlanta area, the show continues at Trinity School off Northside Parkway.

Blessings,

David Galloway GAW

>David, I had planned to stay for the reception but my big bowl exceeded their price limit so I had to take it back to the house. I was unaware that they would not accept a piece with a price tag over $5000 so 2 of my best pieces came back with me....and I worked feverishly to finish the big bowl in time for the show. Oh well, I left there and took it by the Signature Shoppe and am awaiting their decision to exhibit my stuff. Such is life.

Dick, only change you will see is I may start keeping my shop a little cleaner, ("may", not "will"). Lol
