Featured Artist of the Month

This month's featured artist is Susan Feagan. She is an extraordinary aritst who coordinates in her spare time. When she is not cleaning, shining, filing, bitching, moaning, going to meetings, picking up supplies, calling lazy assed instructor's, calling lazy assed instructor's again, filling out supply lists, Fed Ex- ing late supplies, cleaning, shining, yelling at looser students, sucking sludge from the clay trap, wondering about the decisions from the administration, wondering why it smells in the basement, wishing she had time to make work, wondering why the kitchen closes just after you are hooked on the food, sending in work orders to fix the endless things that go wrong, going to meetings, calling studio assistants, picking studio assistants, picking studio assistant's noses, wiping the instuctor's asses, cleaning and shining, fixing kilns, planning to rebuild new kilns, wondering about her evaluations, getting ready for Community Days, wondering if all her dreams will ever come true, cleaning and shining, polishing stainless steel sinks, wondering why winter rental costs so much, wondering why there are not renters to enjoy the strobe lights that Brian Ransom left, looking at the newly sanded floor and wondering ..how long it will look that nice, wondering if anyone will slip and fall on a new floor, cleaning and shining, ordering wood for spring, calling Milan, wondering why the oil heater keeps going off, wondering why the coffee house as the same tuna salad since she was a Core Student, wishing all her dreams would come true except the one about the administration, cleaning and polishing, loading clay, doing inventory, trying to keep clay warm without burning down the studio, wishing the gutters would not clog up so much, filing endless memos, calling the good instructors and thanking them, wondering if anyone will ever clean the coordinator's office, wondering why the refrigerator in the office is filled with rotting lunch supplies, wondering why the stairs in the coordinator's office is so filthy, ordering for spring, sweeping up leaves in the kiln yard, wondering why there is always black dust in the kiln yard, wishing for Flordia or Georgia about this time of year, wondering if the new Registrar will ever show up, wondering if the computer will crash and loose all her files, cleaning and shining, looking forward to spring, waiting on the next Community Day meeting, wishing she would be named Coordinator of the Month, or throwing away bisque from 3 years ago, then she is making her wonderful work.
