here in town. Actually this is the first Live show for the group in the last two years due to Covid. It was fun to be among a group of talented artists with the freedom to show what work they've been doing for the past two years. For myself, the first year and a half of the outbreak really stopped me creating anything. The galleries were closed. Everyone was stuck at home; living in sweats; watching netflix ; eating inappropriate food. What was the point in going to the studio to spend time on something no one would ever see? I think you could call it artistic depression. Others have experienced this . Did You?
But jewelry is small, and since I have other stones, that was a way to see some beauty in a more doable time frame . Clay can take months to create; fire; clean up; then clean some more. A call from a client got me back to making the big bowl. Ah hah, work awaits. So here I am with my lovely earth brown, porcelain beaded necklace, with the nice, chunky turquoise stones and the bracelet and earrings to complete the set. I hold the biggest bowl I can fit in my kiln. So this started out as a blog about a show and talked about the changes in all our lives up to this moment. Comments?
