Well, you are. And we'll all likely keep telling you that until you believe it. :) It's the depression/anxiety stuff that makes you afraid of failure and have weird feelings about what you create. The stuff I've seen of yours is gorgeous. I know it's hard to see that, but you will someday. Just keep pushing that Paua! :)
Just tell those monsters to Fu** Off. Feels good. Try it. :)
And, hey, trust me when I say that anything with a hole is a bead worth keeping and loving and creating a piece around! Even if they look like swiss cheese. People here can work miracles with wire wrapping.
Oooo, yeah, and beads cascading out multiple holes.

or "woven" in and out of those holes!

I'm going to bite their heads off and spit them out.

ah, but in performance, you are not as likely to be committed to an institution as you are to be booked for a tour. Which is more like a Ward on Wheels. Sarajane

Marisa, you really pegged a good one! I do that too, and its that freedom that comes of not EXPECTING anything "finished" out of the blob that allows me to learn where the limits are. Sarajane

You guys are amazing. See, Harry. Even if you think you made a mistake, show it to someone else anyway. They will see it with different eyes.
You forgot to add the spittoon 'ping'.
Or shall I find a recipe for them? Wait, maybe I'd better ask Celine. There are no snakes in Alaska. Here the foxes eat the rodents.

I am learning so much here and it reminded me of an old saying about flea markets.... One persons trash is another persons treasure. Not that I am calling my Paua trash mind you. lol But I think if I make a mistake I will call it by a uniquie name and sell it! lol Thank you. Harry
