moving forward

Well I haven't written in over a month, and it's been a crazy few weeks. My father passed away, and it's been a difficult time for me. But i am finding healing by creating bottles of hope. My mom, sister and I have been working on creating bottles for cancer survivors for the Relay for Life that will be happening in Nanimo in June. Here is my latest creation.

Octopus - Bottle of Victory

Here is my other bottle, do you see a sea theme happening with my bottles!! Alot of fun to do!

Mermaid - Bottle of Victory

Here she is, as promised. I'm really happy the way she turned out. I didn't know what to expect when I started working on her, but I am just thrilled with the outcome.





I am really enjoying working with clay again, I felt like I lost something when my depression hit, I just couldn't enjoy the little things in life. But my daughter has helped me see a new purpose.

Bottle of Victory

Well I finally got off the couch and had a burst on inspiration. I created my first Bottle of Victory. I was inspired by the books I purchased from Christi Friesen. I love the simplicity and her humour of her books.
So I plan on making a couple more 'sea themed' bottles.
I really enjoyed making this bottle, it was such a creative release, something I needed to do. I hope this is a beginning for me.
