My 58th birthday was this Sunday.
I've been cleaning the studio, reorganizing and throwing things out!
Feels good to acknowledge what isn't working and clear space for new sculpture.
A calm and clean space lets me see signs and omens.....
In the grey days my sunflower panel reminds me of the Camus quote:
"In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer."
That is good to remember when I feel overwhelmed by ideas and inspirations
and underwhelmed by my stamina and ability to prioritize.
I was at the computer when this rainbow swung by the lovely Japanese sketch.
A reminder to stay present and notice ephemeral beauty.
This is what I think my sculpture offers people: its own narrative beauty,
but the art is also a back drop for people to notice the changing quality of the light.

For reasons yet unkown I'm studying smoke and steam.
That's going to be a challenge for a sculptor!
Here's to a new year of creativity.

Congratulations on your birthday. May you continue to dazzle us with your sensitive spirit and creativity for a long time.
Thank you, Beatriz. Only another sculptor knows the physical amount of work and stamina needed.
