….a new photo challenge
Going through my emails this morning I discovered that two blogging friends have started a new photo challenge and are inviting bloggers from around the world to join in. One of the bloggers is Snow from The Snow Melts Somewhere and the other is Amanda from Something to Ponder About.
This week’s theme is inspiration. What inspires me? There are so many things; my husband inspires me with his daily drawings, other artists inspire me, photos from around the world inspire me to travel, my friends inspire me to be a better person, reading books inspire me, music inspires me, etc., etc..
I saw these two sculptures at the Gardiner Museum in Toronto last week. They inspire me to get my hands on some clay and mold an image from my imagination. The only thing holding me back is not having access to a kiln.

The first one is really moody, while the second is more… juvenile. In any case interesting. I wish you access to a kiln. 🙂

Thanks Manja. I’m sure kiln’s are around and you might even be able to rent space in one.

Meaning unclear 🙄 In a way, these mouldings give me inspiration that there is hope for me 🤗

Interesting, I always love sculptures! I’d love to mold some clay, now that I think of it I can almost feel it in my fingers… That first one actually reminds me of a British actor… don’t know his name!

I think you might be thinking of Michael Gambon who plays the second Dumbledore in the Harry Potter movies. The older Peter O’Toole looks a little like the sculpture as well.

Okay, I found him: I meant Bill Nighy! 😊

I saw Bill Nighy’s photo as well when I looked up old British actors. I think the common factor is that all those actors are old.
