Nick & Sarah visit the Mudhut

Nick and Sarah visited the Mudhut tonight! After a delicious meal and preparing the clay these young artists tried their hand at creating their very own masterpieces. Sarah especially loved getting muddy and even left her handprint on the backsplash complete with her initials and the year. Nick served as her waterboy keeping her hands and clay wet to reduce the friction. We had a blast! So glad they came! Visitors are always welcome to The Mudhut!

Pottery today....photography tomorrow?

Mr. Nicholas Reed Johnston

Who is this handsome man? It is Nicholas all grown up! Hard to believe but he is set to graduate this spring from High School and has collegiate plans and a motorcycle technician as his career goal. He is active in his church, has a flair for writing, and is very much into his girlfriend, Sarah. The picture was just too good not to post! We are proud of you, Nicholas!

Lighting A Fire In The Studio

Oklahoma is confused in its weather patterns this year....it thinks it is Alaska! So....desperate times call for desperate measures. We ordered a wall-mounted gas heater to break the chill in the room. So far, so good. I think it would fare better if we didn't have to open the double-car garage door every morning! But it certainly is making a difference--if only from watching its golden glow! Tossed in a couple of pictures for you to check it out. Feel the warmth? LOL! Have a great day and stay warm!
