I haven't updated in a long while. Why? I don't feel a compulsion to post just for the sake of maintaining an internet presence...plus, I didn't feel like anything especially interesting happened.
After ten years and no improvement beyond single-semester employment, I refused my contract from CIA. My ".edu" e-mail address is no longer active, so anyone trying to reach me should use "lortonstudio@gmail.com".
Whatever shall I do with my immense amount of free time? Shuttle the helper monkey between swimming and ice skating. Attack the never-ending, ever-growing list of home improvement projects. Constantly make things. Refine the shop. Build a foundry.
I'll also be teaching workshops, but not until the 2018 season. Some will be at the standard venues, but others will be small, backyard classes that I host. The backyard option will allow for a greater variety of topics. Anyone interested in classes, please shoot me a message.
