Elegant surfaces

Tea









This summer I had a great experience working with a group of students. We made tea bowls and tea pots. We explored the Japanese tea ceremony. The students were tea hosts and enjoyed a beautiful day in the courtyard at the museum. They dressed in a Kimono and tasted bean curd pastries.
