Week Two: Residency at Beatrice Wood Center

This week has been full days of working in the studio, including weekends.  I have started a body of work, which are human tools with a figurative element.   Historically, our ancestors used different tools for survival and these included tools to build, cook, defend, etc.  These tools are a part of who we are, whether we remember their use or not.  All these "tools" have helped our generations survive and thrive through today.   In this theme, I chose tools that have come from my different ancestry, which when combined are what makes up my genealogy. 

Note:  The images below are all pre-fired, so they will look different once fired.
