Need no excuse for color…

 

Always looking for something colorful to Post…

     Above is a Samarkand small bolinpush suzani, hand embroidered.                                                                               Below is a Mongolian yurt wall cover. Siberia.

              The reindeer people. 

Suzani. Samarkand  below. All hand embroidered. 

Some I chose from an album that are bright and colorful from all seasons to brighten cloudy much needed rainy days. 

I love rain anyway. 

As a very young child I didn’t see why I had to stop playing outdoors when showers broke out in spring time. 

I don’t recall why I was sent to my room but I think I wasn’t very quiet about having to come inside. 

To my room I’d go and stand on my little bed, opening the latched window and that way I can as very close to the rain anyway, and after the robins hopped out, I did too. Back out to be with my precious outdoors. My great friend and companion doing I don’t even know what. Exploring like all true adventures I guess!

I would give one of my ceramic pieces to Michelle Obama. And feel like I’ve left it in a safe place. For posterity. Or a few pieces from my collections. I’m sure she has her own amazing treasures but I have to try. Maybe she would like my tiles entitled, burnt offerings terracotta. Another burnt Offerings are in a corporate collection of a tile company and was in The Monarch Tile Ceramic Competition. It was Monarch who bought it. The clay was stoneware. These are hand made tiles burnished and fired in a sawdust fire and assembled to show the smoke gray moving through the piece. This piece is worth 12,000.00.
