Progress

"Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb."
-Sir Winston Churchill (1874 - 1965)
That quote perfectly describes how I feel. I love getting things done knowing that after that thing there is just another thing to do. With art, there is always something to improve on the next piece, always something to do differently the next time. I love knowing that I will never run out of ideas!
I pulled a twelve hour day in the studio yesterday and finished one more necklace. That makes three. Im hoping to have enough in this series done to take to a gallery in Tucson this weekend. Now I need to make some brooches and a ring or two. Back to work!
(Once again, I am so excited when I finish pieces I take pictures of them right on my bench, so I apologize for the yucky background!)
