At Ellarslie with friends |
It has been 5 months or more since I have worked in clay. Meanwhile, work created in my studio has been on display. Last night I saw two of my towers at the 33rd Ellarslie Open at the Trenton City Museum.
And down the street here in Princeton, I have several "Dog Actors" bowls, another tower and earring trees for sale at the ArtJam pop-up gallery.
This week I allowed myself to open a bag of clay and begin. The biggest project emerging from that bag of clay is a woman's torso with arms raised, head down bearing the weight of... we shall see. It's not finished yet. I know what I think will be there, but sometimes things change, because the clay has the final say.
