Images of a Day (The Slow Version)

Coffee out at the Point: sailing school weather, bright skies and light airs.

Summer's recommended reading: Homer's Iliad!


Garage art: the clay bits are mine.

I'm still getting over another round of illness--sore throat, cough, headaches, body aches, whatever--so the day has been a slow one with a coffee jaunt followed by garage-time, by old projects and new projects.

Old school depth gauge; fishing gear.


Salvage work: the larger 'blue boat'.


Photocopied art from Classical Greece: inspiration while using the old rowing machine.


Photocopied art from Classical Greece II: inspiration for sculpting heads.


Garage art: inspiration from Ayrton and Weil.


Waterhouse's "The Siren", I think.






Old wall-fish: stoneware; blue glazing.



Fresh whale: air-dry clay, first attempt/use.

Mermaid (rough): air-dry clay.
