(total time working on actual bowls today: 2 3/4 hours)
Before the Internal Revenue Service gets too excited about the title of this post, I need to make clear that I just mean I resisted the temptation to start the morning by working on my tax returns instead of making art. That tells you something, doesn't it? If working on tax returns gets a definite aura of attraction? Artmaking does get scary at times.
I did go to the studio though. Looked at the results of yesterday's technical experiments and got clear on how I want to do the rest of this piece. Got bogged down at one point on whether or not I need shorter drill bits to reduce the wobble. Accurate holes through the side of small round bars are not going to be easy, but are crucial in this piece. Really I think the drill bit issue is a detour.
Ended on a high note, clear on steps to complete and how to start tomorrow. Now, for that tax return....
