Well, I’m back from a truly epic trip to the Mojave desert with my son, Max, and as I write this the kiln is already full of silver pieces being fired. We traveled through an extraordinary variety of landscapes—rugged badlands, granite boulder piles, salt flats, thousand-foot dunes, raw volcanic fields, and endless stretches of bajada. I came away with several new molds, metal clay elements impressed on stone and salt, and my usual collection of rocks, sand and ephemera.
I took many pictures with my phone but can’t seem to figure out how to get them en masse from point A to point B, but I will manage somehow because I would like to post them in a blog…just so you can see the incredible environments these new talismans are coming from. Stay tuned for that…it always takes me quite a while to fully return home and integrate all of it. My body may travel at 85 mph in the car, but my soul likes to walk…
Blessings,
Dawn
