The making of... creative

When I first started doing ceramics, one of the first things I did was raiding my dad's tool cabinet. There are such interesting tools you can use to apply texture to pieces and this hole maker has given me much pleasure so far. I use it to make holes into ornaments but also to apply to the feeling creative. When I make 'creative', I usually make a few as it's easier to work in batches. I always start with the biggest circles and last I make the smallest ones.
I always apply my logo and a number on the bottom. Creative is a popular feeling, it's together with curious one of the most bought ones.
The images are a bit off color but that's to blame on the lousy weather...

Interesting!! Is your dad a carpenter?? My dad was an illustrator for children's books - I still use his brushes for my ceramic works :) These circles in various sizes look so playful!!
Love seeing your work in progress, Mitsy! Oh--we are having the same weather...it effects my photography, but anyone can see the care and craft that goes into your moods!
Fun watching you work! It's been cloudy and raining a lot here so my photography is also affected. But your work shines right through!
Love seeing your work in progress.
