This piece above is my Art. Have you started any new hobbies or resurrected dormant ones during quarantine? I’m mildly startled that the word quarantine just feels so normal to say now.
Each week I make small doodles or drawings in my bullet journal which has evolved from when I first started. It always give me great pleasure to see what I come up with each week. Recently in talking to two friends on separate occasions I realized we all were creating Art. So I scheduled us a Zoom session this past Saturday and we spent over 2 hours chatting, painting, even a bit of silence, like we were all in the same room. This is our “therapy” session and so delightful to be with likeminded friends.
I so dearly miss my weekly ceramic sessions in the Central Valley of Cali. It pains me not to be able to get on a wheel or create something by hand and see the process of firing the clay and watching what color my glaze will really turn out to be. My future studio has now expanded in my mind once again. It will have all these area’s Photography, Art (think messy easel, paint spattered concrete floors) and Ceramics. This is going to be a big studio filled with light filled windows. Well in my mind it will be.
I just bought a stack of watercolor postcards which I can’t wait to start a new series I have in my mind. We shall see what transpires in the coming months.
