Possibilities

 
We are focusing on possibilities this week. Did you realize that there are very few things that don't offer unlimited possibilities? I didn't. They are everywhere in almost every scenario. If that isn't a huge blast of positive-ness I don't know what is. This is such a wonderful thing!! I have started playing with air dry clay since I don't know when I'll get my little kiln up and running. This little lady is posing with the mound from which she came. Clay is awesome stuff. Any kind. I love squishing it and forming it and coloring it. I'm doing an online workshop with Susana Tavares. I formed my little doll last week and now I am just waiting for her to dry completely so I can paint her. Whooo hoooo paint!!

  12. She's lovely! I remember my favorite art classes in high school involved clay. But it wasn't just the creating that inspired me, it was the entire process from wedging to glazing.

  13. She has such a sweet innocent face. I agree with you...we have endless possibilities each day. That's probably why I never have enough hours to do everything I want to do. I can never understand when people say they are bored!
