A Brief Intro

Let me introduce Mr. James Loso. He is the headliner of my feature article. Former ceramics teacher at Elk River senior high school, the clay room is where I first met him. Eccentric and instantly a favorite, Loso's classroom was a place of creative release. He was always full of support, suggestions and BS, never one to back down from a "verbal joust," if you will. He's one of those teachers that took a genuine interest in the work of his students, working individually to encourage the unique style and talents of his kids.

Beyond the classroom, he is also a fabulous potter. I'd give you his website, but you'll have to wait for the main article for that!

For these reasons and more, I chose Loso as the feature for my feature article.
