Sculpture I am working on

Concepts development                                                                 

We are rapidly moving to the present time with this blog. From now on, we are live on air, figuratively speaking.

I am intrigued by making larger objects – always difficult in clay – from smaller components.

As I look through my inspirational images collections on computer and in books, I am particularly drawn to spherical objects.

I want to make spherical form reminiscent of seeds, pollen,  planktons. 

Form that evokes ideas of genesis, growth, evolution, potential for change.
