This has been a creative last few days. I attended an excellent clay class on Friday with Carla at http://arttilesbycarla.com/ and had a blast! It was raining outside, we were snug in Carla's studio and we were all happy to be there and creating. I will post my piece after it is fired, glazed and ready to hang on the wall. This has been the year for playing in clay and I am liking it!

Sunday was a teaching day at Studio Maureen in San Diego and the women were impressively cranking out the soldered glass charms and digging it! It is always a high for me to see the women tenderly holding their charms and smiling as they go on about their day, knowing they had a good time and found their time well spent.

Creating art is one of those things that you can immensely enjoy in the company of other creative souls, or tucked away in your little art room in the back by yourself and lost in the zone. It would be easy for me to isolate in my art room, but teaching and taking classes helps get me out there and mingling with other talented spirits. I am blessed to have the best of both worlds.

I have been aware that my thinking for most have my life may have been coming from a place of scarcity, not enough time, not enough love, not enough money, not good enough, not pretty enough, yada yada yada . . . But my thinking has been turning around and I am realizing that our universe has more than enough for everyone, it all depends on where I want to put my focus.

Happy Monday. Great photo. Wish I could have taken the class. Group energy and art can sometimes be really fun.
