They didn't consider pottery "art". Go figure??? But when I went to one of their shows, they DID consider a cut out,wooden toy maker "art"...so I asked them why. They said he made wooden sculpture. I had to laugh. That was many years ago, and that guild still has the same number of members..hasn't grown at all. But the cut out wooden toy maker is still in there selling his "fine art".Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01255982401059984821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144185760037216159.post-21580426408135202852010-03-16T11:16:55.727-04:002010-03-16T11:16:55.727-04:00Hi Janet,

I'll grab it & post it on mine with a link. Aggravating isn't it? Pottery combines every aspect of art from painting to sculpture and yet some people can't see it as "art". I'd say it was because of all the assembly line ceramic stuff you can pick up on the cheap, but there's just as many plastic, poster, computer & felt painting reproductions selling for a dollar or less...Georgia Front Page.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18248749393644673382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144185760037216159.post-34174168284363830912010-03-12T14:08:32.370-05:002010-03-12T14:08:32.370-05:00This is timely, I am in the process of writing an ...This is timely, I am in the process of writing an article on my blog about this. The reason it's at front of mind is that I was painting an image on one of plates during a break in a pottery workshop when one of the participants asked if I was a potter or an artist.Lori Buffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00233955188892423314noreply@blogger.com
