The picture of the bird is nasty, but the art you created from it is beautiful. Isn't that one of things art is suppost to do - take the ugly and make it beautiful? Nice work!

The stronger the reaction the more honest the work. Thanks for sharing the honesty in your work. Great job. Keep going!

I live in South Africa and often see dead seals (from swallowing fishing line of boats, etc.) when walking on remote beaches. Thanks too for your generosity with the knowledge gained from your experimentation and glaze recipes. Kim, you have wonderfully captured the plight of creatures.

They are wonderful creatures, and the more the word gets out, the more hope there is that we change our ways. Hurrah! I’ve spent days cleaning dead albatross on Midway Atoll.

Poor albatrosses. I see Peter Cundall, our favourite transplanted Yorkshireman, has been arrested in Hobart protesting about that abominable mill! Were you there Kim? A thing of horrible beauty.
