COMMENTARY:
"4 YEAR PROJECTS SEEM ODD TO AN OUTSIDE OBSERVER. SO LET ME BREAK IT DOWN FOR YOU. THIS IS THE "TOTAL" TIME THE PROJECT TOOK WITHOUT FORCING IT TO COMPLETE ITSELF AND RUIN IT. I ROTATE NUMEROUS PROJECT AROUND EACH OTHER COMPLETING THEM AS THEY SEE FIT. THIS WIRE LAYED A FRAME IN A BOX. ONE DAY I PULLED IT OUT AND SAID HMMM...IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE READY LET'S GO. I'VE LEARNED TO LET GO AND LET THE PROCESS HAPPEN. I PERSONALLY FEEL CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS KILL THIS ABILITY TO LET ART HAPPEN WHATEVER THE FORM. THE TOTAL ACTUAL TOUCH AND COOK TO COMPLETE PHYSICAL TIME WAS LESS THAN A FEW HOURS. SOME PROJECTS DO COMPLETE THEMSELVES IN A MATTER OF A FEW HOURS, OTHERS WEEKS, MONTHS, GET IT? COOL.
THE SUPER SCULPEY PLASTIC CLAY MEDIUM WAS ROLLED FLAT, CUT, HAND MOLDED, AND FORMED OVER THE SKELETON AND JOINED TO ITSELF FREEHAND STYLE WITHOUT ANY PRE PLANNING. AS IT SET THE HARDNESS BECAME PERFECT AND IT WAS EMBELLISHED WITH LIGHT SURFACE DESIGN. THEN I COOKED IT. REMINDED ME OF USING AN EASY BAKE OVEN AT A NEIGHBOR'S APT AS A KID IN HEILBRONN, GERMANY. ONCE COOLED AND CURED IT WAS PAINTED. I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE IMPORTANT TO NOTE HOW COLOR STAINS INTO THE SURFACE AND WITH A LIGHT FINE GRIT SANDING IT BONDS MUCH BETTER. HEMP WAS THEN KNOTTED ALL OVER TO COMPLETE THE FORM. I ALWAYS THINK "A TISKET A TASKET A FLOWER MAKING BASKET" WHENEVER I LOOK AT IT. IT WAS A CONSTANT RUNNING COMMERCIAL FOR A TOY I NEVER GOT AS A CHILD. I ALSO REMEMBER PICKING PETALS FROM DAISIES "THEY LOVE ME, THEY LOVE ME KNOT.""
