Just a short note. LJ is getting more insistent about me remembering people on here, and since there's things I don't care to talk about on FB, I may once again start posting bits here, and bore you all to tears with links to my new studio work. Yep. I now have a clay studio, and am working in the mud of my choice.

It is the 14th of December, at 1pm...and I've just now made enough this month on my artwork sales alone to cover all my bills: Next month's rent, Utilities, truck payment, insurance payments, food, credit card payments: All covered. CALL ME AMAZED ( Read more... )

Well, on Thanksgiving I had no fancy meal. A friend/client had called earlier in the week to say during the rains, her window wells were filling with rain water like an aquarium, and the water was seeping into her basement. "I know this isn't your thing, but I was told by a contractor that the window wells need to be excavated to a depth of about ( Read more... )
