Artwork Description:
MY DAUGHTER ANDREA- SHE IS ON MY PORTFOLIO UNDER PHOTOGRAPHY- WAS STUDYING AT FIDM - AND HAD THESE CLAY PACKAGES, SUPER SCULPY AND FIMO.. AND OTHERS, LYING IN FRONT OF HER.. ALL THESE HUES- I WATCHED, HER SLIM FINGERS PULLING HERE, ROLLING THERE. CUTTING.. She is so very exact and unique in her sculpting ;-). THEN SHE CREATED OWN DESIGNED FURNITURES FOR MODEL OF RESTORED OR REMODELED HOTELS ETC. I ALWAYS LIKED THE GUMMY FEELING CLAY WE HAD IN KINDERGARTEN.. WE KNEADED AND FORMED.. THEN, I LIKED TO FORM CATS, DOGS, BIRDS.. AND I RECALL, THAT I BOUGHT SAME FOR MY KIDS AND SHOWED THEM HOW TO MAKE FIGURES LIKE BIRDS, ETC. AND THEY ENDED UP CREATING THEIR OWN 'WORLD'.. ANDREA SMILED AND DROPPED A BLOB OF CLAY IN MY HAND.. TRY IT, MOM, YOU MIGHT LIKE IT.. AND I NEVER STOPPED SINCE THEN.. JUST WENT ALONG BY FEEL.. AND SO GOOD FOR MOOD- MIND, CORE. WHEN I WAS NOT SURE, IF I PLACED EAR, OR NOSE, OR EYES - LIMBS.. FOR ME, RIGHT, I WOULD STOP HUMANS CLOSE TO ME, WITH: WAIT A MOMENT, GOTTA CHECK SOMETHING- OR.. CAN YOU DO THAT MOVE FOR ME JUST ONCE?!-AND WHO EVER IT WAS AT THE TIME, WOULD BE SO SURPRISED, AT ME INSISTING, THEY STOPPED ,WHATEVER THEY WERE DOING- AND I HAD MY CHECK WITH THE EYES.. COUPLE OF SECONDS, ONLY, WAS ENOUGH. BRAIN REGISTERS INSTANTLY- Had photographic memory, before depression - amongst other great brainy gifts- WELL.. BRAIN STILL AND SO GLAD, IT DOES, PHOTOGRAPHS KIND OF THINGS I CONSCIOUSLY SEE.. OR'SAVES' THEM FOR ME, AND PICTURES IN EXPRESSIONS OF HUES, FORMS, LINES- MOSTLY ABSTRACT, THESE LAST YEARS, DURING CREATING.. SO.. IN SCULPTURE,I EASILY BONDED WITH MEDIA.. THIS SCULPTURE, YOU SEE STILL MORE ROUGHNESS- THE TOOTHPICKS I USED, THE OTHER TOOLS. NOW, MOSTLY MY HANDS .. BUT TOOK JUST A LITTLE TO GET TO THIS 'CERTAINTY'.. AND HAVE TO ADD.. HANDS MUST BE!! METTICIOUSLY CLEAN.. AREA YOU WORK ON.. NO CATS AND DOGS CLOSE BY.. OR BIRDS HOPPING.. OR MUNCHING , YOU NEITHER, ON THE SIDE.. NO, NO, NO.. DID IT ALL.. AND HAD TO RE DO WHOLE THING.. CLAY PICKS IT UP.. SPECIALLY FROM HANDS. - IN 'HER' OWN WAY, THIS SCULPTURE TOUCHES.. YOU WILL SEE UPCOMING DETAILS.. AND FEEL- WHY IT WAS CREATED, THE WAY YOU SEE NOW.. I HAD COME THROUGH VORTEX.. again... 'AND HERE I WAS..'-- ENTERED VERY RELUCTANTLY THIS SCULPTURE INTO EXHIBIT.. RECEIVED MY FIRST HONORABLE MENTION .. AND DID NOT KNOW THEN AT ALL.. I ONE DAY WOULD 'RUN' THIS GALLERY AND ORGANIZATION FOR ARTISTS AND ART STUDENTS FOR MANY YEARS.. AND ORGANIZE THE EXHIBITS, HANG, EVEN JUROR LATER- ALSO THE MANY ART WORKS BY THESE GRACIOUS HUMANS, WHO 'JUDGED' MY ART PIECES THEN. EVERY MOVE HAS IMPACT.. FOR A REASON.. OFTEN A DIRECTION.. WELL.. THIS AWARD I TREASURE.. IT ENCOURAGED AND INSPIRED TO 'DIVE' INTO SCULPTURE MORE.. AND DISCOVER KNOWLEDGE OF OTHER ON THE WAY.. BOW MY HEAD. THANKFUL.
