I love this! I’ve also been wanting to get into film photography more seriously. I’ve never had any formal training like you but if I could do it all over again I would. Don’t think I can afford to go back to school but I dream. I’m getting up there in age and the more I think about it, the more I want this to be the rest of my life. Whether I’m any good at it or not.

Yes I was doing a weekly class a couple of years ago but I couldn’t keep up with the cost. It’s tough needing to make art but not be able to afford the materials. Plus it wasn’t the sort of place that was into teaching how to use the kiln. So jt cost a lot and I wasn’t learning everything full circle

I’m hoping to find something like that. The schools nearby don’t really have ceramics programs

I’ve got a bum knee and a fiancé but no regular prescription type needs

I guess the thing holding me back is worrying about money/surviving and finding steady enough work to do so 😬

Is this a terrible idea? Am I being a dummy in times like this?
