Yvonne Cavanagh is one of the LAST ceramics teachers is Bakersfield CA.  She started the Facebook page High School Ceramics Teachers and she is extremely active in the collaboration of this group.  In this episode she talks about how she helps a struggling student and meets them right where they are.  She also gives us the idea of having virtual Artist Talks to expose our students to practicing ceramic artists.   She talks about a chalk art project she created in her front yard.  We discuss how “the ideas come when you are doing” and how to allow your artwork to evolve in real time.
