I am the happy owner of several Cy pieces! Definitely some of the highlights of my collection. They always make me smile. I'm sure your newest creation will be amazing.

So I got started, kind of. Last night I made this sketch. I've already changed some things in it (in my mind) but it was good to get things on paper. Basically it's the same scene times 4 (fall, winter, spring, summer) with little touches that represent the season.

While sketching I decided I can't draw a Moai, which is obvious, and the palm tree will be the same in each "vignette." After much internal debate I decided to create four tiles, each one representing a seasonal scene and then I'll create some way to display them all together as a single piece of art.

Tonight I rolled out some clay and cut out the "tiles." I've got them on paper plates and I'll put them into plastic bags so they can start to set up.

When it's leather hard I'll be able to use the carving tools I bought a while back thanks to Wendy's suggestion!

Happy to be in the game! Thanks for the motivation. I've already got plans for the leftover clay......
