Well I'll certinally see what I can find out about her just for fun...
But you need to know this chick (meaning me) was raised on a daily diet of the importance of loyalty first before anything. [Dad was USMC] I'm sure Hoppers work is wonderful. But she could be the John Naka/Ben Oki/Insert Masters Name Here, of pottery and I'd still want yours. It would be personal if it was yours. And there would always be the sentiment of my mud slingin' biker buddy attached for all the years I own it.
So speaking of pots.... In the Big 'UM thread you showed a precious pot. Do you still have that one? And what does the kanji say? LOVED the asthetic flavor of that pot!
Yah know for being a dude who said once that when Bonsai threads get into the more subjective and asthetic nature of bonsai, you stop paying too much attention, (and correct me if it wasn't you please) you sure do express a distinct and wildly subtle asthetic yourself.

But I digress...
