Black Mountain Center for the Arts mural

 Tucked alongside a restaurant and the old building that is now the Center for the Arts, is a new mural, designed and installed, by Brushcan Murals of Asheville, NC.

There's a strange looking man and a younger man working on pottery wheels.

A New Year

It's 2019.
I haven't posted anything since last year, har har har.  But I also don't have a clear concept of what to post, so have left this place vacant for 5 days.

I like blogging.  I like the connections I've made with professional potters, and those artists who aren't considered professionals...but we all have a love of clay (or whatever medium we use) and the creative spirit is alive in each.

The creative spirit.  I think I'm looking for her today.

It's raining.

I'd imagined (upon night-time waking) a stroll along Flat Creek and sitting on my favorite big stone and eating a snack (a Clementine, a cup of hot tea) I even imagined packing the food and drink.  But when I finally opened my eyes, everything was wet.  I imagined (briefly) sitting on the wet rock, in my raincoat, but my sit-upon was soaking up cool water.  Not for me.
