In between traveling I've been diving into my first love in the arts...clay. I took a workshop with an amazing artist Kristen Stingle at a studio in north San Diego County a couple of months ago. I have not worked this large since college...just a short time ago...he, he, he. This gal sculpture hasn't been named yet but I'll come up with something grand. I ran out of time to finish her so the top of the head and arms weren't finished. This will lead to found objects and more...that's what the holes are for. The colors are underglazes and oxide. I carved the surface (sgraffito) with poems and images.....she's getting her first firing tomorrow!
