i watched this doe eat up every brand new dandelion in the yard.  she’ll be back for more freshies today.  the apricot tree is a giant bouquet and the apples are not far behind.  herb starts are happy in their new pots and i’ll be planting seeds and shipping out a few fresh pots this weekend while getting the spring collection up on the etsy.

in the mean time i’m taking 2nd&3rd looks at the new work and continuing to cool off from building that portfolio.  looking forward to more terra cotta flower pots next week once the studio returns to making status. . .

‘It was Mahayana Buddhism that proposed that in time all beings would attain Buddhahood and that all beings possess within them the seed of complete and perfect Enlightenment. It is fitting, therefore, that this youthful figure of hope points to his own fulfilment as well as the fulfilment of each and every sentient being. As Maitreya waits, so each seed awaits the certainty of its own realisation in times to come.’
