The Featured Artist this month at The Art Co-op is George Smith. He is a very accomplished potter, always producing both functional and beautiful pieces. Back in 1987, I participated in my very first Redbud Festival in Three Rivers. George had the neighboring booth, and was so kind and encouraging to me. I was as green as grass, and he actually traded me a lamp for a drawing. Since that time, I have almost shamelessly begged him for the drawing back so I can redraw it for him. He hasn’t agreed to let me shred the first drawing, so we have no deal. (The lamp is still in use, along with its matching companion lamp, and he hasn’t asked to smash it in return for a new one!)
