Not Ready for Prime Time

Hiding Out     18 x 24    Paper Clay/Mixed Media

I have been working on new pieces lately. Most are animals and birds taking refuge in thickets of brambles. Hiding out. I feel like I am regrouping myself...taking all the parts of me and realigning them into some new order. It is a time of invention, experimentation and hopefully, discovery.

For once, I am allowing things to unfold on their own. Not feeling like I need to "get" anywhere or "do" anything. Just making art and stacking it along the walls of my studio...not planning a show or filling a gallery. Just making art for the pure sake of expressing the feelings that arise or following a creative idea down a new path. What a luxury. I am so grateful for every opportunity to create...without having a gun to my head.

I am blessed.
