Nothing better than making the front pages of your hometown’s major newspaper! It only took me 15 years, but here I am featured as the Style & Taste cover story for the Cleveland Plain Dealer, January 11, 2012! Wonderful article, “Silver, gold, Lego: Precious links to the past are jeweler’s gems“ by John Petkovic – we had a long phone interview back last fall and it was definitely worth the wait. HUGE,…

NCECA 2013 Emerging Artist Linda Swanson makes us think about ceramic materials in a new and dynamic way. Her installation, site specific, fired and unfired work all has an emphasis on time, material and transformation. Linda generously shared her time and thoughts with me about her current studio practice and the path that has led her there. I hope you enjoy this interview with Linda Swanson. You can see more of her work at: …See More

Emiko,
Maybe you'd be interested to share your insight into last week"s symposium as well?
http://crafthaus.ning.com/profiles/blogs/craft-forward-ing?xg_source=activity
Hi Emiko. It was such a pleasure in meeting you at Snag this weekend, brief as it was. I will be in SF next weekend and I was wondering if you had any suggestions to shows or galleries in the area that you wouldn't mind suggesting. I'm still in limbo as I just graduated and may be moving to that area... Thank you so much!

Thank you very much for your membership payment and support of crafthaus. Your membership is valid through April 15, 2014.
Enjoy crafthaus, participate often :-) Maybe upload images of new work ?
We jury online exhibitions for Crafthaus and are inviting you to submit to our calls-
Earthly Pleasures http://crafthaus.ning.com/group/crafthausexhibition/forum/topics/open-call-earthly-pleasures
Me, Myself and I will be our 7th show http://crafthaus.ning.com/group/crafthausexhibition/forum/topics/open-callme-myself-and-i
Sitting Pretty Part 2 is how the show will look http://crafthaus.ning.com/group/sittingprettytheartsittingpretty
A show at Crafthaus has more of an audience then a gallery and offers a permanent stage to the world. We do love gallery shows, but at Crafthaus submission is easy, doesn't cost anything for members. In addition to our calls there are others you may be interested in.
We try to make the submission process as painless as possible! If you have any questions please let us know.

Yes I'm very excited about blogging and what not. Thanks for following. I'll be certain to capture as much as possible for those who are not attending. Maybe some flickr too. Sorry to hear you won't be there.

It was great to see you in Ohio. You gave a great talk. I hope you had a safe trip back! Best,
