I sometimes think if you let your head lead, it's easy to go round in circles just thinking, if I let the eyes and the hands lead and put the mind behind them they go right to doing something creative and fun. <br /><br />Like kids when you give them a jar full of crayons and a sheet of paper, they get right to making something without contemplation.<br /><br />The images are there, they just want to run down the ends of the fingers to go out into the world.LLYYNN - Lynn Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11538418994323990630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212636362424974677.post-86838192224738375062009-04-26T16:44:00.000-05:002009-04-26T16:44:00.000-05:00I love how you say "the hands know what to do". Ho...I love how you say "the hands know what to do". How true, once you've taught them!<br />My 14 yr old recently started composing on piano a bit. I asked him if he shouldn't write it down. He said, "no, my hands can remember." <br />:)<br /><br />I also like what you say about leaving something unfinished. I used to feel bad about so many unfinished projects, then I came to see what a good thing that is. It gives you something to look forward to, and I like letting some things "percolate" --i.e. wait for me to come up with solutions, additions, etc.<br /><br />I'm a big fan of your work since tripping over your blog a few years (?!) ago, and it's great to "see" you and see the things we artists have in common!<br />Thanks for sharing! <br /><br />Alisa R :)treasurefieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17766743447697089263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212636362424974677.post-3820682668198682092009-04-23T20:16:00.000-05:002009-04-23T20:16:00.000-05:00Thanks, Deirdre - I see this page getting a lot of...Thanks, Deirdre - I see this page getting a lot of activity and it makes me realize that seeing the photos of the studio is something people are very curious about, I'm glad you made your way here.LLYYNN - Lynn Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11538418994323990630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212636362424974677.post-73722417857656435502009-04-22T15:49:00.000-05:002009-04-22T15:49:00.000-05:00hey, thanks for showing us your tools at work!

It's a Foredom buffer, I can't remember where I got it (I've had mine for a while) but I think Rio Grande might carry them. I'll do some research and see if I can find its source.<br /><br />Yes, Sharon, I'm a real girl, LOL. I wear a hugely loose knit skirt over my work pants, it acts like a wraparound apron, catching all the wipes and drips. And when I'm buffing I keep my hair pulled up, it's a safety thing.<br /><br />I don't usually put photos of myself on the blog, but if it helps connect people to me, maybe I will from time to time.LLYYNN - Lynn Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11538418994323990630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212636362424974677.post-63637837930898624052009-04-19T16:48:00.000-05:002009-04-19T16:48:00.000-05:00"freshly washed air" -- I love the way you phrased..."freshly washed air" -- I love the way you phrased that!<br /><br />LOVE your work.

It makes me feel like you are now real and I can be connected, and I like that you share your thoughts that are involved in the creating process, it also reassures me I am not alone in my endeavors! I thank you for sharing since I am not quite so sharing of personal photos yet.

Just opened a kiln this morning and I am very pleased with one of the treasures that will be coming to you. Not to the bottom yet. Have a happy making day.
