This is the summer that I regress. Clay has always been my first love; I abandoned it 20 years ago. As a girl of paper photos and poetic analysis, I am not sure how to make my new, more mature thoughts work in mud. The first assignment has me stumped. Thinking that my thoughts are trite and "done before" (which I hate more than anything) keeps me from even sketching my ideas. Not good! Patti (our Professor) says I should write down what I know I have tendencies to do artistically such as political feminine issues, children or fairy tales. I suppose I should try to avoid all or some of those angles. I am sure there are more propensities I am forgetting. Maybe if I just pick one to focus on. I need a night to sleep on it. Ideas due in 3 days. Oi. I have some visions in my head, yet some are getting stuck and I can't move beyond them. It is like they are haunting me saying: "resolve me..." like a puzzle! Obsessive art ideas...is this common? Hmmmm. I am ready for the challenge.
