The group is waiting for Galip to start his demonstration. All around us on the walls are articles and photos of Galip and his work.

Sylvia volunteered to try the potter’s wheel and made a little pot. Galip is congratulating her on her success!

Galip himself making a teapot.

Although we were told he had never done this before, he had each of us paint a spot on one of his own designs. Here is Linda giving it a try.

Galip produces his own designs and never uses a pattern. The intricacy and richness of color is a visual feast.
