My name is Amy and I am a young potter moving to Kelowna this coming September 2009 from Vancouver and would really like to link up with the potters in the area, find a work space (for rent) and get making art. Does your association have space to offer for rent in any capacity? The place I will be moving to does have work space, although it will take me while before I can buy my own kiln and glaze lab materials. I am familiar with both private and group studio spaces and have worked extensively with cone 4-10. Currently I work with cone 6 and have experience in raku, wood, and Soda firing techniques. I graduated from Emily Carr with a BFA 2004, and have taught Children's art classes in painting and clay at, Arts Umbrella on Granville Is. I am also looking for work; teaching, assisting, or studio tech type jobs, really I would be interested in anything studio or art related. I have a flawless track record in sales and customer service also, and have actively been making and selling my work for over 8 years now. Just starting the ball rolling with establishing the who's who in the lovely Oakanagan, and putting my feelers out there. I look forward to hearing from you, and also meeting one of these weekends over the next few months. Very kind regards, Amy -- Amy Burkard cell: 604-773-6654 amybgirl@gmail.com
