Essence of Clay
When I began my pottery journey into my creative self I wondered what was in me to create and what I had to say through art ~ my Mom is an artist, my son is an artist, and creativity mostly sat in my head in the imagination of what I ‘could’ create rather than creation.
FINDING A CREATIVE OUTLET
I have created much in my life. From children, businesses, relationships, sacred spaces, memories, and more. Yet my heart has been yearning for a creative outlet so that I can create intimate pieces that reflect aspects of my heart and soul.
Join me on my journey through clay, as I create sculptures that dive deep into some of my favorite essence words.
MY COLLECTION
HOUSE OF TRUTH
As I sat in the studio pondering and being in the presence of some magnificent potters ~ what I came to know is that I am creating my truth, it is a path that has followed me from the earliest ages.
Truth is something I have chased and tussled with most of my life - who’s truth is it anyway?
My chapel of truth comes from the depth of the work I do in the world, when people work with me one of the things I ask from them is to tell the truth about themselves.
That is not an easy task and requires a container that can hold it.
My chapel of truth is a cracked door that allows you to peek inside and feel what you imagine ’truth’ to be, the open roof is that our truth can be set free and it changes through lives stages, the window is to remind you that people are watching us tell the truth about ourselves.
And that we are allowed to take our truth where ever we go.
Stay tuned as my exploration grows and expands with my capacity.
