Between sunset and sunrise is a time of magic and transformation. The butterfly becomes a moth and flits about warming her shoulders by the light of the moon......

Up a Creek
I made this piece as a statement about being helpless. Although it is presented in a way that is somewhat amusing, there really isn't anything funny about finding oneself without a paddle. I've chosen to depict the idea in this way because I feel compelled to acknowledge that life isn't perfect - but can't bring myself to do it without a bit of humor.....
This is a one of a kind ceramic sculpture for the wall. It's a good sized piece - measuring 15" high by 9" wide and 7" deep. It is ready to hang in a special place.
This piece is for sale in my Etsy shop:

Simon Says
And so, do we do what
Simon says or do we choose our own paths? Here, I'm using a child's game as a symbolic "big brother" - and, by now you've probably guessed that I march to a different drummer.....
