The Crafts Report Magazine - April 2014

In this issue

This month’s issue focuses on our tax trauma. Donald Clark explains why it is essential to have a trained accountant do our annual love letter to Uncle Sam. Yes, it is an expense, but a well-chosen one. Luann Udell shares her own thoughts on the IRS extravaganza. In her own inimitable way, she makes sure we see how our panic is Ironic, Ridiculous, and Silly.
Also, on hand, are an array of first-rate ceramicists and sculptors who are tops in the world of clay. These truly visionary men and women create items that are Complex, Personal, and Amazing. (Hey, that’s CPA! Taxes are definitely on my brain.) In our Profile in Success, we shine the light on the achievements of Bette Golden Lamb. After reading her story, you’ll discover that both her work and her life are, indeed, colorful and vibrant. She’s an artist, author, and health care professional. How in the world does she choose one for her tax papers? Maybe she just succinctly declares “triple threat.”
