Looks like it’s clearing up. Personally, I loved it. It wasn’t the kind of downpour that makes you worry about the ceiling sagging in before or a flood in the basement. Although I must admit, I watched a big rusty stain above where the printer used to be with a bit of suspicion, but aside from a few damp papers I left on the desk (yes, it does leak some) things were for the most part pretty quiet. It’s been drizzly and rained a little heavier at night. Most plants got what they needed, my last job prospect got cancelled and I just had this really special time with my waxes and ordering things online, as well as just taking care of some paperwork, making soup and trying to figure out what to do next .
On Saturday, we went to Westwood and saw Eva Hesse’s little paintings show at the Hammer.Spending time at the museum was lovely, though I noticed with astonishment that my head felt full just after seeing those paintings alone, or, at the very least after the sculpture show next door. They have a huge art bookstore there as well. All of that left me with many thoughts to ponder on, and finally inspired and ready to make stuff.
On Friday, I just started a jewelry class and so looked all over the internet at and for inspirations and supplies. Waxwise, I am happy to report that all the older pieces are either done or very close to it, and I worked on a new one today. I am still marveling at the volatile spirits of creativity. Of course, as soon as I started setting in with hopes for a productive week in the studio, work showed up. But I’m glad. Can’t wait to post the pictures…I haven’t written in a terribly long time, it’s good to change that.
