For Tracey:

I've had ceramics with you before and I know where you and Kerri were trying to head with you plates ( you will get there, did I mention how excited I am to see the end result?) We spoke and you were talking about your randomness ( I can relate). So I decided to put some random/ not so random information on here for you. I started by looking at the concept of printing on clay, due to your interest in the two. I found this website, there isn't too much information but it is a start:

If you go to the International museum of print and clay address you can find some of Les Lawrence's work such as:

(I had to throw a skull in there :) )

Also I located some MJ goodies :http://www.michaeljacksonart.com/index.php

The above site is a site specifically devoted to art about and by Michael Jackson. You have to join to see full size images but I thought you might want to check it out. It obviously reminds me of some of you past print work.

Also I am sure you have seen this before, but I couldn't help but add it due to the simple fact that it is a statue by Jeff Koons, is ceramic, and is of MJ:



Finally ...I think your art should do, be, have, resemble, express... a little of this:


Or you could take it this direction:
