I miss creating

I made this plate a couple years back in ceramics class, and I keep passing this picture in my camera roll. I miss that class so much and desperately need to get my hands on some clay.

My studio has been closed

So I’ve been reminiscing on some of my older pottery accomplishments :)) As an intermediate potter, sometimes I find it hard to see themes in my work or trends in my style. i still think my stuff looks good tho

quirky Little ceramics

The clay in Iowa is very good quality, so I’ve been told. Maybe that’s why it seems like everyone I knew there–at one time or another–spent time at the wheel, and my life was filled with beautiful & useful ceramics. I have a pieces at home but I’ve moved so much that some got lost, or broke, or I left behind for safe keeping. Pictured, some cups I wanted from Akar last time I was there.

keeping an ongoing pleasures list

Currently have three full pages in my notebook! I guess some might call this a gratitude journal LOL but it’s different when I do it.  My brother was telling me about this phenomenon called “target fixation”. It’s a panic reflex that happens when motorcyclists become fixated on a singular object, obstacle, hazard (e.g. a sharp curve on a winding road) and they will unconsciously steer in the direction of the thing they’re trying to avoid because their hands follow their gaze which leads to accidents.  You will follow your gaze so be aware of where you’re looking. Train yourself to seek out pleasure and appreciation! Understanding where + what you derive pleasure from increases your capacity to enjoy things which in turn makes you a more interesting person (imo). I think it’s just as important self-knowledge as understanding your triggers/trauma. It is a daily willingness to be transformed by small things. Sorry for lecturing but I want good things for all of you. Xoxo, meg
