(total time today working on actual bowls: 0? 2.75 hours?)
Zero or 2 3/4 hours? Today's work was borderline because I spent the time clearing space and making a way to see the new pieces in progress against a good background. I have a great sculpture stand with adjustable height and turntable top. It just needed a place with a white background so I can really see the work - and a place located where I can stand back from it to look.
I did this work years ago for the all iron bowls, making places so I can look at the bowls in progress at different heights - basically coffee table height, table height, counter height, and eye level. The new bowls are larger and shaped differently so I needed new arrangements. I worked very happily at this. My heart was light.
This morning the spring leaves were so beautiful, especially when backlit, that I took time to take some photos. Then I took time to sit outside for a while just to look. This gave the day a sort of blessing. I think that's why I worked so happily.
There are some improvements I'll make to the viewing area, but it will work ok now. I'm excited about this series. Making the new viewing area was a commitment to go on with these new bowls.
