Later, Amie decided to do a series, making ethnic faces in clay which could be wall decorations rather than free-standing pieces. Sources have included museum visits and catalogs, newspapers, magazines and books. This book is an outcome of her 2007 show at the Delaware Art League. It demonstrates her abiding interest in the clay medium and in anthropology, history, and decoration. The mother of three, grandmother of six, and great-grandmother of one, Amie has been a farm wife, an elementary teacher, and a pottery teacher at the Art League with the Academy of Lifelong Learning. Amie is a native Delawarean. She has lived in the same house at Pinewater Farm for over sixty years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45146215579763,"sku":"9781477601266","price":25.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_ab1aaa72-e441-4346-80ba-10511d9c230c.jpg?v=1782927061","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/faces-of-many-nations-9781477601266","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
