School Projects

The first of my class projects that I would like to share with you is from a course called Sacred Geometry.  The thing that really stood out to me in this class was the pervasive nature of geometry.  It's concepts and symbolism are everywhere.  Particularly beautiful to me was seeing the geometry in nature.  I am ever amazed at seeing the order and beauty of the Creator's touch.  Nothing is overlooked.  Everything is so carefully and thoughtfully put together.

We completed three projects in this class.  The first two are pencil drawings.  For the last and final project I couldn't resist using clay.

What have I been up to?



Ok, so it has been a long time since I posted anything on here.  I've been busy.  "Doing what?", you may ask.  The answer is, "Going to graduate school!"  So far I have really enjoyed it, but it does seem to gobble up every bit of time that I have.  I have thought about going back to school for an MFA degree for a long time.   This past summer it finally felt like the right time.  My boys don't need me ALL the time and long before I am ready they will go off to college and I will need something to do so I don't go crazy.  The masters degree is a way to expand my options.  I hope to teach at the college level.  I thought I would share a few pieces that were in my application portfolio for the program.


                           

One of my pieces is from the pitfire that I posted about earlier.
                                                       

I also included a few cake sculptures....

                           

...and a few drawings.

                                        

Hope you like them.
