Thanks for support at Peter Anderson Show!

I want to thank everyone who helped me continue to live the artist life with your purchase of a original clay critter. It is such a blessing and gift to be able to play in the clay, I hope the enjoyment comes through in each piece. The Peter Anderson Show was great! There were lots of people and lots of cool artist and art. The next show on the docket is Chimneyville Crafts show dec. 4-6. at the trademart building in Jackson,Ms. I'm really burning the mid-night oil to be ready, but it's a lot of fun I must confess. Once again after reading several blogs of other artist I see how it is a love of the craft that keeps them going after a full day of other task. The small hours that come when they do must be taken advantage of. And really knowone has the perfect schedual everyone is busy and we just find the time to fit in the things that are most important to us. Life is a balancing act that requires a lifetime of practice. Well I wanted to share a few pics of some frogs that will be leaping out of the studio soon hopefull to new warm homes to have someone to share a cup of coffee with every morning. Because they love that coffee!!!!

Well it's almost Nov.The Peter Anderson show is around the corner. I think I'm ready for it. This is a great time of year all the hard work pays off, well I hope it does. I have been thinking a lot about the people who are full time artist and reading their blog sites it really encourages me to just stay busy. Finding time to be creative is a challenge for every artist, most of the time it is when we are tired and uninspired that we must get to work. Sometimes it's after the third cup of coffee kicks in that really good work comes bubbling out dispite haveing a slow start. I have a few of those nights ahead of me I hope good work does come bubbling out. anyway here are some pic of new work

I have some friends who play music and they got me on stage to play some of my songs, it was a fun night out and I thought I should put these on the blog page or know one would believe me. Well I have so much more respect for real musicians, It's a lot more difficult to perform with a room full of people watching you, I'm sooo much better on my couch at home when it's just me.
