Ronnee Strickland post re: Passing of Walter Mondale

 I was quite sad today to hear of the psssing of Walter Mondale, was

a man of expansive intelligence and never-swerving integrity.  They were both prominently personified, daily, in his long career in public service as a state attorney general, ambassador, U.S. senator and Vice President.  Jimmy Carter and Fritz Mondale should serve as an example of what integrity in politics  should look like.    I remember in college having fevered discussing about this duo.  Rest In Peace!  I’m certain Joan will welcome you into your rightful place in heaven.

These are all very important questions to consider before you start  painting pottery . When you first start learning how to paint on pottery, the best thing to do is take a class. Or read a great book on the subject and practice.  But a class will probably save you money.  And if you plan to bake your pice of art after painting, be certain the paint will withstand the heat.  It is usually written on the bottle in which you purchase the paint.  If you purchase it from Amazon, this is usually included in the “details.”  You can often find inexpensive classes at your local community center or even go for an evening at  Pottery U Paint .  What you want to do is bring enough paint with you so you won’t have to come back later to change colors.
