You probably saw the pictures on fb and/or ig. Every shelf in the studio filled with bisque ware, just waiting to be glazed and fired for ArtWalk. So much potential!
But wait, what's beneath this hospital gown?
A very angry appendix, that's what.
Instead of glazing, the potter rested. By the end of the day, his abdominal pain was unchanged and he began to have chills. So we went to the ER that night. The physician commented on his textbook execution of appendicitis in the adult: upper abdominal pain migrating to the right side and settling there. Mark stayed in the hospital overnight with fluids and antibiotics, and his appendix was removed the next day without any complications.
He's back in the studio already, with a team of angels assisting. We are mixing and seiving glazes, washing bottoms and rearranging that kiln that was loaded and waiting to be fired on Tuesday. We are excited to show you what we have created for ArtWalk. Stay tuned for follow up events where we will present the wares that had to wait ✋️ because sometimes life is just like that
