RE: My Sketchbook Spotlight, The Early Days
HAHAHA, yeah we all made those lumpy ashtrays back then didn't we!
I'm sure it would be fun to see your early artwork....I enjoy that stuff not because it's particularly good but just because it's fun to see the way those we know (or ourselves) made sense of the things we saw around us.
And btw, I had those moments of "eh, it's too much work, I'll go see my friend" all the way up until college when I found clay. Drawing and such was sort of fun but I didn't care about it more than anything else really and certainly less than hanging out with my friends!! Clay though, was the first thing that sucked me in and that I could give myself to. Anyway, thanks for reading and your always enjoyable comments :-)
I will try to find some of my early 'works'. Though I do have a whole computer of writings from 5-10 years ago, and they are quite different than what I write now. I should put those out too, under some other 'heading'. At times they were a bit wackier and more creative, but somewhat poorly written. Sort of a lumpy ashtray version of my present day, typing self. (Though still FAR from the throwing wheel of creative writing.) Yowza moment, I think that should be my title when I put these works out... "My Lumpy Ashtrays". Thanks for that.
I'm so glad you found your calling in clay. You do have quite the knack for it, that's for sure. And like your works, I always enjoy chatting with you on here as well, thanks for being a creative Steem-meister. Have a nice Monday.
Cheers.
I love it - My Lumpy Ashtrays!!!
