SUMMARY:Mysteries of Mud: A Short History of Clay
DESCRIPTION:PROGRAM\nTravel back in time to man’s earliest uses of clay\, which like many discoveries\, happened by accident. This trail leads to significant dates and places in man’s history. You will be introduced to sculpting and how clay is formulated and fired today. The focus is on pieces that are thrown on a wheel\, hand-built\, or sculpted. \nAfter an insightful description of the history of clay and its use\, you will discover the different methods of throwing and sculpting. This includes creating the piece\, the kiln bisque\, glazing\, as well as the different ways to fire the final piece. You’ll gain insights into some of the major changes in the use and development of sculpture. Come discover the art of sculpting. \nSPEAKER \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn 2010\, after almost 35 years as a dental hygienist\, Linda Percell left private practice to become a full-time educator.  As Clinical Director\, she was instrumental in forming that portion of the Dental Hygiene Program at Houston Community College (HCC)\, Coleman Campus\, which included both didactic and clinical studies. While teaching full-time at HCC\, she also challenged herself to complete her master’s degree in Health Sciences concentrating on Education. After achieving this accomplishment in 2012\, she decided to take a less stressful role and joined the Department of Dental Hygiene at Lone Star College in Kingwood as adjunct faculty. \nAfter working and teaching in the field of dental hygiene and retiring in 2016\, Linda has devoted her time to her art. She realized after working so precisely with her hands for more 40 years\, that her talent would certainly crossover to clay. Her studies with clay feature animals and the colors of nature. She favors hand building and sculpting a myriad of animals in traditional form. \n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n
