Who can seriously say about a bowl: "Mine is the very first and

I cannot agree with this statement. Andi Wolfe turns and decorates
beautiful bowls. The general form of the bowl is not unique, but the
finished product is instantly recognizable as hers. She carves and
colors leaves and vines on both the inside and outside of her bowls.
To the best of my knowledge she is the first with this theme and
deserves the recognition for developing it. I'm sure the same can be
said of a number of turners and their designs.

And most, if not all, of them have previously appeared in pottery and
glass.
