✨️ Day 9✨️

My wee Brave Wing sculpture survived her bisque firing 🔥

🪽✨️I'm so happy 🥰 I'm using my wee junk journal to document her journey and hold the details of how she came to be ✨️ My head can be foggy right now ...  sooooo this way ...  I only have to look her up between these gorgeous pages of my journal. 

🥰 I may have done a ... happpppy dance ... when I opened the kiln 🤸‍♀️💕💖✨️at silly o'clock early in the morning ... running through to the bedroom to show Alex 🥰😁🤸‍♀️🫂

✨️Time toooo Glaze her ... and ... be BRAVE 🪽✨️

✨️ Day 7/8✨️

  💙 Little bird from my last post ... whispered ... they needed a friend🪶 so out with the clay to bring one to be ... with a wee crown to finish 👑🐦 I've made another teeny wee crown for the first one 😘 fiddly wee things they are ... I find myself ... slowing down ... quiet, quiet ... no rushing ... tick tock ...  smooching wet clay to form the wings ... carving 🌿 ... making eyes 👁... so much to LEARN ... patience ... patience ... I hear the whispers reminding me 😊 

I can't begin to express the joy I'm finding in these quiet days ... something much needed right now. 

✨️💖 Thank you so much for being here 🫂 much love ❤️ and 🫂 hugs

✨️ Days 5/6 ✨️

🐦 What an emotional few days I had as I brought this little WHISPER to be 🐦through MUD ... through my HEART ❤️ and SOUL ✨️as I sat using my hands to mould what I couldn't see ... only what I could feel ... with no idea how she was going to come to be ... just a knowing deep inside 🪶to be BRAVE ... to TRUST ... to KEEP GOING through the messy stages ... ahhhh, tears fell as I said "hello" as she appeared from the mud ... roosting gently in my hands ... with the gentlest of eyes 🫂 I felt so close to my mum in that moment✨️ I can still feel how that moment felt as I type 🐦🪶🐦 TWO little ones appear when I'm out in nature, when I need reminding I'm not alone since ✨️Mum went next door to be with Dad✨️ to remind me  ✨️🫂🪶🐦🪶🐦

✨️I never expected the emotions that are filling me up as I work with clay ... the call of the WHISPERS that I feel are GUIDING me ... I'm learning to TRUST ... to BELIEVE ... to have PATIENCE ... I may not know the road I'm travelling right now ... everything new and so far outside my comfort zone  ... and me ... I'm different ... hurting, missing mum ... BUT somehow I FEEL this is EXACTLY what I'm meant to be doing right now ✨️🪶🫂🐦

✨️Thank you so much for stopping by ✨️I'll be back with more Soul Whispers ✨️

Much love ❤️ and warmest of hugs 🫂

✨️ I've joined in with the 100 Day Project that started on Sunday February 23rd. 

 I hope you'll join me as I travel along on this journey ... a journey of finding myself again after the loss of my much loved mum last August ... as I let the whispers come through in my art again ... I feel drawn to working with ... CLAY ... the WHISPERS have been getting so LOUD that I couldn't ignore them anymore ... DO I know what I'm doing? NOPE 🙃 I've only dabbled with clay before .... but here I am pulling up my BRAVE girl knickers 💕 ready to see where the WHISPERS will take me 🫂 with my mum in my heart ❤️ hoping to find light ✨️ in the darkness and my joy again for what I create 💕 so out with a bag of clay and the basic of tools ... here I go ✨️

💖✨️ Day 1✨️💖

💙 This little Soul Whisper I call ... BREATHE ... I lost myself to that magical place I go to ... when time stops ... and all is peaceful ... and full of love and light ... as I create from my heart and soul ... with the WHISPERS keeping me company✨️ I never thought I'd go to that place again after mum passed 🫂 The glimmer of light ✨️shone through that day and night as she came to be ... as she burls on the banding wheel, she  reminds me of my mum and to breathe again, finding joy and parts of me again. 

✨️💖 Day 2/3 💖✨️

💙 This little Soul Whisper I call... BRAVE WING ... she filled me with so much emotion as she came to be ✨️ I lost all sense of time ✨️ being BRAVE as I pushed myself past the discomfort of not knowing what I was doing 🐦 ONLY ... a yearning to bring my WHISPERS to life through my hands with clay ... in that magical place I go to ✨️where anything is POSSIBLE ... so lost I was in what I was doing ... that it wasn't until I had finished ... that I realised ... tears had been falling as I worked. I remember kissing her ... yes, I did 😊 and thanking her for taking me on a journey as she came to be ... a glimmer of light in the darkness she is ✨️I have my Mum ✨️ to thank for this 🪽

✨️💖Day 4 💖✨️

💙 From working with clay ✨️ to pencil in hand ✏️ letting the ✨️ WHISPERS pop out ✨️ on to one of my mums 🫂 art books ( thank you, Karen ✨️) This "Littlie" one oh mine has me smiling ... the  glimmers of light ✨️ breaking through as I went from pencil to paint 🎨 with her little button nose 🩷 and her sweet little cheeks ... we had a lovely time chatting to each other in that ✨️ Magical place I go too ✨️ as I warmed her up with colour 🖌🌈 making her as cosy as can be 🫂Next time you see this "Littlie" she'll be in clay✨️🩷

💕 I have no training ... a total newbie ... all I know is that I wanted to take my Soul Whispers a step further by bringing them to life with clay ... I started a few days ago to get a wee bit ahead, so if anything crops up, I can still show up 😊 Along with clay, I might pop up with sketches and paintings with my soul whispers ... I hope you'll join me along the way 💕

✨️ But for now ... 

Thank you for stopping by ✨️

Much love ❤️ and warmest of hugs 🫂
