Discophany: New Paintings

The weather has been really crappy lately. Or, we'll have one nice, sunny day, randomly thrown into a week of dull, rainy grays in the fifties. This kind of makes my head feel heavy. Or maybe I just need some coffee. I'm taking my mom out for lunch today for Mothers Day (a bit early, Mothers Day is on Saturday and today is Wednesday) then we're going to get pedicures. Such an awesome mother-daughter activity day.

What else is new: Lately I've been doing ceramics with old ladies and arts and crafts with homeless ladies. Both are very fun. The ceramics class I'm actually in, and the arts and crafts I volunteer for at Sarah's Circle. Last week we made some collages, jewelry, and fans and this week we're making dream-catchers. The ceramics class is a throwing class, basically, but I'm getting inspired to combine thrown pots with hand-built stuff added on and kind of working within the same theme as some of my paintings. The only problem is I don't know if I can technically pull this stuff off. If I can and do, pictures to come. Not for a while, as I haven't even made this stuff yet. Then it has to dry, get bisque-fired, then glaze-fired. Such a long, arduous process.

Anyway, I have some new paintings!
Enjoy.
