A few years ago, while I was a student of clay at the Hawaii Potters Guild, a Board member asked if I could provide a ride to their 100+ year old instructor who stopped driving. Little did I know that this would lead to a very sweet friendship with a very special lady, Esther Nowell.
Over the past year, PBS filmed Esther teaching classes in watercolor and ceramics as well as interviews with students and associates. It was such a great segment on “Here is Home”.
Here it is in full. Esther’s part is in the middle:

It’s so wonderful that you got to know her. She sounds like a very special lady.
I enjoyed watching that. Thanks for sharing!
