I haven't posted in this long... I guess I'd best start afresh!
So I did it. I got into grad school. I never would have thought I'd be doing this, but it is a wonderful feeling. In two years I will have an Msc, masters of science in counseling. How I got to this crux is a VERY long story and I really don't type THAT well... Suffice to say, it has been a long hard road. But good, in the end.
I have the most AMAZING wife. Sorry to everyone else out there who didn't get her. SHE IS MINE! HAHAHAHAHA! Oh. Sorry. Even with all of the strains, trials and difficulties, she has stayed. Not just that, but she has done a downright UNBELIEVABLE job of it. I am lucky to even know of her existence, let alone be married to her... How did I get so blessed?
Ahem. Ok. As I have said before, I make stuff... hence the name of the blog. What do I make, pray tell? SO glad you asked. I ... well... I make... Hmmm...
This kinda stuff!
I like to call myself a "non media specific three dimensional artist", for the most part, but I think it is more accurate to say that I am an artisan. I love to make and create things of beauty, that have an intrinsic purpose BESIDES the beauty. Not that beauty alone is an unworthy undertaking. I just like what I create to have... purpose. I work (mostly) in clay, metals, glass, paper, plastic... Anything I can get my hands on, really. Lately, it has been copper wire. (did you know? Copper is one of only three elemental metals that is not silver or gray in it's natural state? It's true! Gold and Caesium are the others). I have been making little tidbits like the one at the top of the post. I have been selling (or trying to, anyway) such nifties in (one of) my Etsy shops:
Interested in something else? I'm more than happy to graciously attempt to create anything. Sometimes with only VERY limited success... But you don't know if you don't try, eh?
