It's summertime and I haven't experienced the warmth and heat of summer like this one in Charlotte. And with temps in the 90's regularly, I haven't been too motivated to play with clay at the studio--- which is not air conditioned.
All this has left me in a sort of a rut... I have the sense soon my pottery will take a new look; that I'm on the verge of new style and look of pottery. Style means I'll keep throwing clay at the wheel--- I am thinking that the design on the outside of the pottery will be different. Maybe new forms too. Hmmm
And I haven't had a vacation in a long while and many where I work have been on vacation already for a long while, and well...
With vacation a few weeks away, perspective is incredibly important. Yes, perspective is incredibly important.
Time at the pool has increased. I think that reading while in the pool is a very good thing to do.
And in the middle of all this, I began to write some more. Yes, write. I don't consider myself a writer; my friend Jim out in WA State has encouraged me. It's not very easy all of the time.
Oh, I took a few pics recently of time in the studio, yet when I tried to send them on my blackberry I did something wrong. I need blackberry 101 sometimes.
Lots going on; am going to visit family for a very short trip tomorrow. Then when I return mid-week, I'll get back to the studio by the end of this week.
It's been too long that I've been away...
Off to write- something.

Hi Amy, I like your rambling post. I sometimes feel like that about clay, that I am on the verge of something. I will have a post coming up about a coincidence today just about that very thing and then I come here and see your post, another coincidence. I like the new look of your blog and the close up photos of your pots, have a nice trip.
I have been out of touch with my blog reading. Your new template looks great. See you soon at the studio.
I have been away from my clay for weeks, trip to the beach and the heat is wearing me out! I work outside and it's juts too HOT out there right now. I feel like my work is on the verge of change almost weekly so I know what you are feeling right now:)Look forward to seeing your changes.
