Master Alex the Potter, AS XXXIV |
Alex was made a Laurel at the Rowany Festival in AS XXXIII (1999). He has long been famous for his fine ceramic work which, as King Garric took great care to point out at his laurelling, has never yet failed due to intrinsic flaws. He has been involved in the SCA since 1991 and has been potting since he graduated from the Canberra School of Art in 1987. In 1999/2000 he spent a year in the Barony of Skraeling Althing, Kingdom of Ealdormere (Ottawa, Canada) Major Fields: Pottery and other ceramics. Current Apprentices: |
