This year saw more experimentation in my projects. I began working with some polymer clays, dyeing pine needles, coiling on gourds and, at the end of the year, I tried some pyrography. The free form sculptural vessels continued to intrigue me and several more emerged between experiments. I even snuck in a couple of Tenerife centers done with variegated embroidery floss. The year was a banner year for me in learning new things. A sampling of this years projects is shown below.
