I just returned from the San Juan Mtns. in northern New Mexico, but spent a couple of additional weeks touring some of the museums and pueblos in the state. Fascinated with history, and the ancient cultures there. And - while turning this piece - I swear...I never had a conscious thought about the trip. Yet...once I finished the piece - I stepped back and looked at it....clearly it is a contemporary wooden homage to an "Indian pot". Funny how the sub-conscious is such. powerful influence on our creativity sometimes...if we just let it happen. Hard for me, as a "concrete thinker". But happy that I just relaxed and made shavings.....
