Stamping India into Clay at The Cuba Library

A power point presentation with photos of India and some some stories about what I saw there when my husband Rick and I toured for a month. I wish that I could add the heat, the sounds, the smells, the sense of resourcefulness. The students used the stamps that I brought home from India and followed directions to make a cylinder stamped with images of India. These photos are of their work.

I was particularly impressed with their questions and the obvious thought behind them. Looking forward to session 2 tomorrow. - Elaine Hardman, StoneFlowerPottery of Wellsville
