Cammi and Gus finish their ridiculous interview with Ben Siekierski and finally release their interview with Irv Tepper. Irv is an artist living in Brooklyn and a tenured professor at Pratt Institute for Art and Design. You can see Irv’s work on his website. Irv talks about his early years at Kansas City Art Institute, studying with one of Cammi’s favorite artists, Howard Kottler and seeing Hamada at the pottery wheel.

In part one of this two part episode, you’ll meet Colorado based artist Ben Siekierski, owner of the worst kiln in the history of kilns. You can check out Ben’s work here.
