Phil Keaggy He's one of
the top contemporary Christian
musicians. He has been com
pared to Hendrix in his quahty
guitar playing. What makes Phil
so good?
Well, he began playing guitar
at age eight. He went the usual
route of young rock musicians.
He was playing in bands at
fourteen and eventually quit
school and went on the road to
seek his fortune. Phil en
countered drugs while on the
road however, and the fortune he
was seeking turned into a hell.
Phil began to see the hatred
and deceitfulness in people. He
began to see the futility of life as
he knew it. About this time he
had a visit from his sister whom
he hadn’t seen in three years.
She shared with him the new life
she had found. This life was
filled with joy and gave meaning
to her life. She told him she had
accepted Jesus Christ as her
personal Lord and Savior, and
upon hearing that, he did the
same. Phil is on the road again,
but now he has his fortune, Jesus
Christ.
Phil Keaggy has two albums

For the first time at Atlantic
Christian College, an area
potter's show is being exhibited
in the Case Art Building (Jallery.
Ten potters, reprt>senting the
eastern North Carolina area, are
displaying various exhibits
ranging from whet'lpieces to
large sculptural handbuilds.
The Area Potter Show w ill be
on exhibit from Nov. 2 until Dec
9. The gallery will be closed
during the Thanksgiving break,
Nov. 23-27. Gallery hours are 10
a.m. to 4:.30 p.m., Monday
through Friday, and 1 p m. to 3
p.m. on Saturday.
The ten potters, including
thret' husband and wife teams,
are exhibiting ten to twelve
pieces each. The potters —
Susan and Lanny Pelletier,
Tonda and Joe Jeffcoat, Jenny
and Rick Walton, Brown
Holloman, Dan Finch, Paul
Minnis, Sylvia Bumgarner,
Hiroshi Sueyoshi, Leslie Ford,
and Ed Brown — are
represented by a variety of
ceramic pieces.
Susan and Lanny Pelletier,
graduates from AC, now make a
living from selling their [lottery.
According to Susan, “Lanny and
1 work as a team. He does the
wheelwork, and 1 do all of the
animals and other handwork”
The Pelletier’s add humorous
tcxiches to their pots, such as
bear heads for handles or whales
for lids.
Tonda and Joe Jeffcoat,
another husband and wife team,
started making pottery as a way
to creatively use their free time.
Joe, a cactus collector, needed
more pots for his cactus, so he
decided to learn to make his own
pottery. The Jeffcoats have
converted their greenhouse into
a studio where they both work at
the wheel in their spare time.
Joe says that “Pottery lends
itself to so may various
techniques that you can never
learn itall”
Both of the Jeffcoats work
with functional pieces. One well-
known functional piece that they
make is the “Casey’s Piggy
Bank”
Jenny and Rick Walton both
teach in Virginia. They produce
functional pieces such as ginger
jars, platters, and serving
bow Is.
Brown Holloman has several
interesting handbuilt sculputral
pieces in the show. One piece,
called “Little Egypt,’’ is a three
f(H)t ceramic sculpture that
resembli's an Egyptian woman
with a veil covering. Ttx' drap<‘d
effect was achieved by dipping a
cloth in wet clay and firing it.
Holloman is showing several
IX)Ls that have large pieces of
bone fitttni into their design.
Many of Holloman’s pieces seem
to hiive symbolic meanings, but
when ask(>d, he commented th;it
“There is no symbolism. I just
imply it to make people think
that there is.”
Dan Finch is represented by a
wide variety of pots represen
ting his techniques. Finch
commentwl that he would like to
study sculpture to help out the
design elements in his pits and
handbuilds.
Paul Minnis is the most ex-
perienctnl potter in the show.
For sixteen years, he served as
the chairman of the ceramics
department at East Carolina
University. He now owns a
ceramic shop in Knightdale and
makes a living selling potter and
ceramic wjuipment. .Minni.s is
exhibiting vases and jars that
have a crystaline glaze effect.
Sylvia Bumgarner is a Third
Century Artist in North
Carolina. She is exhibiting
several pots thiit have been
sawdust fired with motor oil
spills to give them a galax>
effect. Bumgarner has held
several workshops in the past,
and presently she is traveling
the East exhibiting her work.
Hiroshi Sueyoshi is an artist-
in-residence at Wilson Tech. He
studied in Japan and at the
Ohamizu Design Academy
Sueyoshi mainly produces
functional pots, such as large
serving bowls and jars. Many of
his pots have a marble effect.
Ed Brown, chairman of the AC
art department, has several of
his large sculptural handbuilds
in the exhibit. He refers to
himself as a sculptor instead of a
potter. Many of his pieces are
exploding spheres of clay that
have weeds or branches growing
out of them.
