As some of you know the owl is ready for launch again! Woo hoo!! Back out and about into the wilds of the U.S. of A. again, but..... I decided, before leaving my perch, I would start yet another sculpture. Trouble is, I can't get all the sides of my personality to agree on which sculpture to start from my vast list of ideas.
So, I took some time to play with clay. This helps to unwind the mind, also good for the hands, and builds my strength for giving awesome massages!! The problem is, that the clay I work with has a strange mixed sulphur base. It has a funny smell to it that isn't all that unpleasant..but yet strangely annoying. In fact one of my friends thought that it was a perfume I was using. erckk..but okay. (Sometimes you find things like that about the people you know...you start wondering why you know them! lol) Still playing with clay I started to feel sick...maybe it's all the smoke that is still lingering in the air, in fact, some days the smoke is worse than when all the fires started in the first place! So I have the smell of a strange sulphur based odor, with thick smoke, and then an unusual smell, something cooking from the neighbor's house. Whatever he was cooking....it didn't go with the rest of the palate of odors... it was like drinking a white wine with beef.....errrcchhkk.. Upon getting sicker I figured I'd open a window. Fresher, but smoky, air has to be a bit better right? Wrong...because as the wind picks up the smell of fresh cut marigolds (flowers) wafts across my table. Did you know that fresh cut marigolds smell like cat piss?..... errrccchhkkk...
I wish I could bottle the smell right now because it would be the best weight loss diet plan a person could have. No one is hungry when you smell burnt,sulphur,bad beef cassarole, cat-piss all rolled into one nauseating fragrance. Perhaps I should get the patent....
Need a name for it... LOL
