This bridge project film is fantastic! What a talent Diana is! My mother's mother was a ceramic artist . This really brings back memories of her creating lovely things for the house and to sell. I still have a few of her pieces. Thank you for all your hard work that is also a work of art!

Really great video James. Being a budding ceramicist I appreciate the lesson that I just got! Diana is a master and we are lucky to have her in our City. Your video making is also an amazing art and you captured the process and cut/edited the piece so very well. You are a video master James- what’s next? Time to take your skills up a notch! – Austin, Hollywood??
