I’ve just spent the majority of the mornin’ working on my “studio.” It’s a small room in the front of my grandmother’s house that we have always called “the education room.” For Christmas last year my family gave that room to me to have for my pottery and art. I’ve worked on it off and on for the past year and a few months ago I finally put my wheel in there. 

Unfortunately, this past year I have not had much time to work on my pottery. I want to work so hard on this, my passion, to make it reality and a constant in my life. I painted my actual wheel as well haha. I decided it needed some brightening up. Once it dries and I figure out some way of concealing the excess water and clay that some with making a pot on the wheel I shall be at it once again. 

Making pieces. I can’t really tell you what I make. Cause I just go with it as it comes to me. Yes, it’s a vase but that just sounds so generic. It’s not just a vase, it’s a Jacie styled vase. And maybe it’s not going to be a vase for the receiver. Maybe it’ll be a holder for a bouquet of pictures. Maybe it’ll be a place to collect pens and pencils on a computer desk. Maybe it’ll be broken to put into a collage frame. You just never know what the mind is capable of.

My mind is so full of ideas this day after Christmas.
