A Thank You from Jecca Pots:
To my parents - the ones who gave me life are also my dear friends and collaborators, Keven & Teresa. To my first-husband, one of my best friends & the inspiration for the prominent noses you see in my work, Zachary. You three got me here. In all senses of the word. We’ve been through hell and back…and turned back around to find a spot in the middle.
Mom, Dad, Z, I love you. Thank you.
To my niece, Camila, you are my inspiration. Being your auntie has helped make me a stronger and more creative human. I love seeing the world through your eyes whenever we’re together. I love you, Mills!
To my mentors, my students, my patrons, my friends, my community - anyone who’s stopped to pick up a pot at a show or watch me throw on the sidewalk in Hilton, VA - this one’s for you. This is the beginning.
This is just the beginning.
