tea set

New ceramic flower pots

Suddenly I am into gardening (never cared about it before). Now I can't stop buying plants!
Before I couldn't keep them alive...now they are actually blossoming and growing!

So with this new gardening "thing" I had to make some outiart pots and I have to say they came out so PRETTY!

So I made some for the rest of the world too.
They are available at the Ten Women gallery.

Surfboard: work in process

This is how the board looked yesterday when I left the studio... I painted over everything how it was day before (check the post below). It's not ready and I still don't know what next...it's a mysterious process to me and every time I feel like a beginner again!! I can feel the wonder and frustrations simultaneously.

Painting spree

3 blank canvases:







now to work...





My friend Flo stop by and I got instant help

...cheers!





next morning...



Surfboard is still work in process. It might look totally different tomorrow..this is just the first draft.
