What to make

this is probably the fifth or sixth blog post I have started in the the last few months. Maybe I will finish and publish this one. What to make? I just realized as I stirred my dirty gin martini that it dd not really make sence to drink out of an espresso sized mug. Usually in the evenings when I sit around and have a night kap it is bourbon or a martini drank out of a ceramic cup, go figure, and mostly it is out of a rocks glass or a large shot glass. Every now and then, like tonight, I grab one of two small mugs that we own. It is either a Beck Evans or a Laura Williams is Laura Ashley I guess that is. It always seems weird, but I keep doing it. At a certain point the indented purpose does not really matter. I think I have drank more hard liquor out of these two cups than coffee or espresso, and that is ok.

The past few weeks have been a battle to decide what to make. One day it is sculpture, another day is pottery and then on to sculptural vessels another day. So what to do? Who knows. I figure if I keep it up and think about things and find reasons for why things are not working, it should play out in the end.
