After stumbling on
Susan York's website
yesterday, I started thinking about other people who came as visiting artists while I was in grad school and thought of Anton Reijnders.
Anton came late in my second year and a few months later, just after graduating, I had a 3 month residency at the
European Ceramic Work Center in Den Bosch, The Netherlands where Anton had worked.
Anton, his wife Netty van den Heufel, and a few other people started the Center, but no longer work there.
Anton and Netty still live in the Den Bosch, though, and have the most beautiful studio you have ever seen, so, happily, I got to get to see them again when we arrived in the Netherlands.
He and Netty (her work above), generously invited Steven and me over one night and we had the longest, loveliest, most delicious, wine soaked dinner and conversation in their courtyard.
See more of Anton's wonderful work
here.
And Netty's amazing work
here.

you are braver than I am. I have decided to protect my heart and wait until 'the garden' comes out on dvd so I can stop it if I get too sad.
their work is amazing! thanks for sharing!
