Artfields etc...

WOW. I haven't post in awhile.

Artfields was fantastic. I enjoyed looking at the interesting and UNIQUE art that was there in Lake City. I was also surprised at the wonderfulness of it all! I didn't take pictures because I was SO busy, but things are changing here in the Pee Dee Region. Which is good.

I started listing items on etsy again! I'm so nervous about it...but...you can't live your life in worry. You have to just take it, one step at a time. I did sell pieces at artfields, so that's positive. :)

 

Rainy days are the best way to be productive.

Serrriously.
I love to shop...on bright, sunny days when I don't have to work. Lately, I've been indulging in Hobby Lobby items. So, I'm glad it's raining.

Goal setting is another way to become productive....I haven't got the hang of that yet. It seems intimidating...okay, I'll work on it tonight. haha. Anyway...

Things are moving along nicely. My "business cards" arrived in the mail Saturday, and they look....nice. I chose Tthomasarts because I like to create all sorts of things...from installations (which i need to post) to ceramics, pottery and paintings. I do miss the painting on the card.



Starting a Movement

I know the bowls should be cleaner...but I adore the messiness of it...it seems as if the food was dripping off the edge.  Oh well. Maybe I should just embrace the messiness.

Slip casting isn't ideal, but it's one way to continue to be productive in ceramics without a pottery wheel. Yes, hand building is another way, but I miss the feel of the clay...the way the pottery wheel would move beneath my fingers...that slippery soothing feeling...I think I used it as therapy.

We should start a therapy of art....some sort of crazy soothing, exciting Art movement here! Create something exciting, different and thought provoking! Instead of people gossiping about silly things, we could create this "way of life..." something that caused waves of excitement with contemporary art and culture!

On Saturday, my friends and I went to Charleston and had blast. Charleston is so busy and interesting...totally different from the non existent culture of Florence. Gosh, I just wish there was something raw and interesting and fascinating going on around here! I think I'm just an excitement whore.
