I want access to the ceramics room's slab roller and the nice gas kiln... and summer vacation, health insurance, steady pay and some other nonsense about making a difference in students lives, but mostly its the gas kiln. Sweet, sweet cone 6 reduction.
No, I should be serious. I'm a potter and I'm planning to teach ceramics at the high school level as they have hands big enough to work the wheel and brains big enough to understand the artistic process. This career change that isn't really a career change (a potter in any other position is still a potter) comes from the encouragement of fellow artists and teachers."You'll still have the summers to do your work and the paycheck to fund it!"
