    Intro to Hand Bulding was awesome! This, my second time taking the course (both times with Ike), gave me more confidence combining techniques such as building with both slabs and coils. I found Ike so helpful and encouraging in terms of being more experimental, exploratory in my own objects, moving beyond typical forms
