Time has got long legs and likes to do a lot of running

Time really doesnt wait, before you know it a couple of months have slipped by whilst intention seems to move very slowly indeed. So here's a few pieces and tinkerings I've been up to in between creating projects for my ceramics classes.



 

Sgraffito is easily one of my favorites theres something so satisfying about scratching through a semi soft layer of clay.

Have bought several belts all of which have broken from the folding and tightening my latest belt is well on its way to the same demise sooooo...

Whilst on the subject of time...Sometimes tiredness and talking conjure up some impressive possibilities, one of my favorite came to life recently whilst contemplating the time element of a particular collaboration, all of a sudden there it was "The Time Elephant" which without consent or introduction popped clean out of thin air, I thought i could ignore it but to my friend and fellow artist its sheer volume in the enclosed space was too much to ignore distracting us from the task at hand and all because of an accidental slip of the tongue! I must be more careful when i speak who knows what else is waiting for a chance to make an appearance!
