Just a way to filter all my inspiration and awe about the world into
something tangible to re-inspire myself and hopefully others

when i got bored with just clay, my ceramics teacher gave me
access to a magical supply closet and i began making crazy conglomerations

Adds personality and everything is a one-of-a-kind



5. What craft supplies would you take to a deserted island?

My knitting bag, sketchbooks, pens, & watercolor crayons
