Day 27, Let there be Art.

Before landing in the Studio, I visited our local bookstore for sewing inspiration.  Sure enough, they have a couple of books with patterns that I'll be picking up on Wednesday. 

Arrived at the studio at 2:30 and left at 9:30. In the Clay Room. 

First, I cleared out my finished-still-drying projects, creating some much needed space on my shelves. 

Next I bagged my scraps, wet them down, wrapped 'em up & continue to pray for their resurrection. 

Then I sat myself down and painted, painted, painted.  

The next time you see something labeled "Hand Painted" pay the premium, for reals, SO MUCH WORK in hand painting my low fire creations. I'm a much more grateful shopper, too! I managed to finish Big Blue Meanie, Love Hand, Owl Tile and get a good beginning on a small Life is Good tile.  

Big Blue Meanid + Love Hand (Set II)

One HUGE advantage to daily studio time (aside from the meditative benefits I reap): the connection with the other artists. Friends. We inspire and share. 

I don't know how I've coped without Art. 

Oh wait, I didn't do a very good job. 

And that's a truth.
