Hi all, For those keeping track at home, the story about the photographer from last newsletter is finished. She finally decided what she was going to do, and I wrote it down, and then I was done. Now for the dreaded revisions… I am currently staring at my teapot instead of doing revisions. It’s a big round-bellied teapot with a handle on the top. The spout is straight and attached in such a way and at such an angle that it looks like a funnel was stuck on the side. The glaze is cobalt blue with gradations of darker colour in splotches. It is very beautiful.
The poem is beautiful. Your poetry is an inspiration! Love the idea of a writing ritual. I also believe a ritual offers us confidence to put words on the page.
Very nice poem Kelsey ❤️ Great teapot story too! I have a bright orange (the compliment to blue), one that I intend to paint some green branches onto, probably in the Autumn :)
I love this, Kelsey! Every last detail is so beautiful and so unique. The teapot is indeed gorgeous…and I applaud your commitment to it. I tend to punish things that hurt (burn) me, so that pot would’ve sat in the purgatory cupboard for a lot longer at my house, haha! Also love your poem at the end. Very powerful!
I have a watering can that sounds about as well-behaved as your teapot. It was a birthday present so I love it anyway. Although, I'll admit it might possibly make a better vase.
