FOCUS WORKSHOP SERIES - KURINUKI — akira satake ceramics During this workshop Akira will spend two days demonstrating and explaining my Kurinuki style. Kurinuki means “to dig out”— it is a great way to bring out the sculptural aspect of your ceramic works.

Just found out that apparently last year Barenaked Ladies put out a song about cancel culture and I'm losing my mind. This song and video are both so hilariously ass.

Miss you so much, Dad!🥹. It’s not your birthday or Father’s Day, but I miss our talks as I try as a Progressive Activist to focus on “WWJD?” as you would every day. Need your love and caring today!

Republicans tend to be “self-focused” while Democrats/Progressives/Liberals tend to be “others-focused.”

Blaming #ATC - or the #FAA - for #pilot error is like blaming a properly functioning stop light for the driver who runs it.

Y'all have no idea how hard Controllers work. None. They are some of the most skilled people on this planet doing a job most of us would CRUMBLE under.

So enjoy this show-Cappie’s and his step-daughter Alex’s (and Cappie’s crew👍🏻) create unique structures out of unique things-even airplanes😎👏🏻

EOs and protective laws, as well as the boycotts are making a huge difference. Pro-democracy changes in our US Congress will not happen until we can tilt the pro-Democracy votes there-MAYBE in 2026.

“Being Proactive”- more cognitively focused now than during Trump’s first term. I run a small zoom group that I hope will grow and we share resources with each other. Boycotting Meta, Amazon, and other businesses has been easier than I thought it would be. Litigation, Democratic state government

This is so fucking tragic. Today Europe is completely united behind Ukraine and the cause of freedom.

Meanwhile the United States is sitting this one out along with Russia and Iran. Make it make sense.

I’ve tried using some kaolin clay powder before to alter the clay slab’s texture but not as a slip-can’t wait to try the kohiki slip! Gotta gather ingredients!

“Kohiki” pottery-“Akira Satake Kohiki technique- (粉引)Enhancing surface by brushing white porcelain slip onto a dark clay body, then stretching the clay to crack and distort the brush marks. It’s completely different from traditional kohiki.” (Accessed on akirasatake.com on 3/1/25.)

Will get back to pottering soon, I hope! 😊. Will be taking an online kurinuki class with Akira Satake of Asheville, NC (lost his studio in the hurricane) in April-so looking forward to it!
See akirasatake.com for workshops and kiln sales-gorgeous Japanese-style pottery!
