I Am In A Rut. Minimum Wage Retail Work Is Making Me Anxious And It's Making It Difficult To Find The

I am in a rut. Minimum wage retail work is making me anxious and it's making it difficult to find the energy to be involved publically with the internet and art world. In the interests of getting back in motion and my career off the ground, I am going to make an attempt to consistently put work online, even if it's just a lame technical experiment or a work in progress. I need to get out of where I am at.

And then I carved a skull out of wood.

New dog. Coonhound. Rescue doggy. My new best dog friend has decided after all the excitement of a brand new home, it’s time to nap.

So my mannequin arrived.

Today's studio success has been turning two bags of dried-up 4-year old porcelain (the last time I did anything ceramic) into one glorious bucket of completely lump-free casting slip.

The monster thing continues. This is the fourth one. It’s an octopus monster. His name is Cornelius Dread. I’m pretty sure he’s a duke or something. 

This one is collage on brown paper, with found images and paint and ink.
