The piece got heavier and heavier as I added density. I figured out strategies to maneuver it. I have no idea how much it weighs but I can lift it (for short periods held at a very specific angle). To reposition it, I drag it slightly over the edge of my workbench, then push it up and away from me.

Being an artist is giving order to chaos without trying to control it.

Left side facing photo of a ceramic sgraffito snake sculpture done with black underglaze, orange underglaze, and gold gilding in certain areas. The snake is in a more "S" shaped configuration rearing up it's head with it's mouth open.
Back right side facing photo of a ceramic sgraffito snake sculpture done with black underglaze, orange underglaze, and gold gilding in certain areas. The snake is in a more "S" shaped configuration rearing up it's head with it's mouth open. This angle shows more of the California Poppies that have been carved throughout the sculpture.
Bigger snake totem! 🐍✨

I love painting this part of the blue willow design. I always think the tree looks like lots of blue oranges all piled on top of each other 🤭

Sometimes the best path is the simplest path. Sometimes the problem you think you have isn’t actually a problem at all. And you don’t need to be perfect or have everything ready to go in order to start something.
