I'm trying to keep a positive attitude with the failures. Ceramics is difficult to master, but the challenge keeps me going too.<BR/><BR/>I mostly work when inspiration strikes me and haven't been repeating any designs except with functional ware. I think the spirit bird came to me from my Native American roots. I do see more pieces coming from that part of my being in the future. Thanks for the encouragement, sometimes that's whats needed an an impetus to pursue certain veins of exploration.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-53638405235213256882008-11-25T21:24:00.000-05:002008-11-25T21:24:00.000-05:00Hi Linda, seems you're not only coming a long ...Hi Linda, seems you're not only coming a long way with your pieces but you're coming a long way in the self evaluation process & creative process as a whole. <BR/><BR/>I'm pretty new at all of this. But your words strike wise to me. I look at every piece I make as a test tile. Everything teaches me something. Results may not always be good or what's expected/hoped for...but every lesson is appreciated. And I'm grateful for them. <BR/><BR/>Your celadon is soooo pretty. And I really like the free form bowls. Will you be making any spirit birds again? <BR/><BR/>Happy Thanksgiving, Linda!Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00188867617559128555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7184126423669640998.post-66566868359288061952008-11-25T19:41:00.000-05:002008-11-25T19:41:00.000-05:00looking goood to me!looking goood to me!Gary's third pottery bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07113249576164428106noreply@blogger.com
