Robert's perspective as a working potter, offers insight different from ceramic instructors
whose primary experience is in academia.
A workshop given by Robert would
not be
complete without a discussion on running a pottery as a business, how it evolves,
and explaining that a major component of a potter's life is related to
marketing.
