The end of the summer is here. I prefer autumn anyway. And I live in Brittany, France and the summer is already like autumn, so all is well. Still It feels like its time to cozy up in the workshop and get to work.
The other thing is that the school starts. Now both of my boys are in kindergarten, so I am almost at the stage where I can get like normal workdays. Maybe I will even work less in the nights - which was the case in the last few years. Children went to bed at 22 h (yes they are not big sleepers ) after cleaning and after two or three hours of sculpting on a little table next to the washing machine. It was a really hard schedule. And now that they are growing up a little I hope to get a lighter workload.
I am looking forward to really immerse myself in my creations in my world, as my two living creations are about to immerse themselves in the real world.. me I can take a step back from it. At least for few hours working.
I am looking so much to it!
It was almost impossible to work with little children who are entirely on my watch. And it is not just impossible to work but impossible to tell how much it is impossible to work . Like this blog post, which isn't an enormous effort, was not possible to do just few month ago. It is so demanding mentally and physically to care . Just get enough to make art just as much that so I don't go crazy. No wonder feminism stated after the machines come into the home.
So you can understand now dear reader maybe what it means to me this 'end of the summer'. It's the opening of a new period in my life, to look out from this bubble what was these last four years.
The other amazing thing is to have a studio, a place entirely dedicated to my work. I am so grateful for that! It wasn't easy to get, and it was a lot of sacrifice from my family.
It's not yet finished, the big thing will be the thermal insulation before the winter months arrive. But we will see step by step.
About the work: I have three series in my mind right now.
One is the 'Femme au foyer' (Housewives) which I already started, and I will soon post on the website.
The other is visible on this photo, will be a series of broken vases. With fingers. Inspired by my home country, Hungary.
And after I would like to start an other series, which will be revealed later.
Well, happy September for everybody and specially for all the parents out there!
