Amesha Spenta - "holy immortals"
What do we know about the beauty of the interiors of the Persian palaces in Babylon and Persepolis?! Middle Eastern Lapis Lazuli Stone Tile Tablet with Engravings. Persian style, Persipol, circa 517 BCE. Zoroastrianism.
Two of the great Seven divine entities emanating from Ahura Mazda.
Amesha Spenta - "holy immortals", in the Persian (Iranian) religion of Zoroastrianism — six higher spirits (angels of the kingdom of light, patrons of goodness): from them comes the creation of visible, good things, and by their decision, all perfection and goodness is realized and preserved.
Together with the bright Ahura Mazda, whose closest assistants and confidants they are, the Amesha Spenta make up the "holy seven".
Miracles of Persipolis.

Clay figures extraordinaire!
Roxanne Swentzell
New Mexico
“She is known for her expressive, hollow-build clay figures that capture a full range of human emotions. She uses traditional Pueblo hand-coiling technique. Her style is highly distinctive from facial expression and body posture, often Native American women and children, exaggerated hands and feet”

A craftsman in another medium
One which I enjoy but have never attempted!
E.J. Taylor, master American doll artist!
Today's quote:
"I learned this at least by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."
-Henry David Thoreau
