discovering joy
“no! no end result today!”
“ok! i’ll just play…” 🦊❤️
I used a pottery wheel for the first time yesterday. My patient teacher taught me how to “use” my hands. Then she said, “Just play around.” So I just played around. I allowed my hands to disconnect from my brain. I let them do what they always wanted to do… to not want to make something… but to simply allow something to be made… then something became made… and I felt what free hands feel.… wet clay… smooth and silky goo… gentle friction of spinning forms…and it felt good… 🦊❤️
