   Gorgeous sculptures! Can you sculpt me a new body? Just kidding…mine has done well. It has climbed trees, played hopscotch, danced, birthed five children, fed them milk made from it, felt immense pleasure and intense pain. I’m thankful for it. But I was just going to say your work is lovely. I’ve never been able to sculpt, but sometimes enjoy drawing. I like drawing nudes also, but don’t have quite the talent you have.

   Thank you Kathy. When I look at the one strong pagen nude, with the towel falling from her thighs, I remember my own young, strong, supple body – as well as how clueless I was about life, the mind & consciousness, how broken, fearful & guilty & shamed on the inside. All others saw was the outer appearance of confidence & strength. So, which would I rather have? My seasoned body as it is now, softened and scarred and dropping here and there, but with a consciousness that is growing in aliveness.

   As to you desire to sketch nudes – just do it! I sketched nudes and faces all the time, each day, and in doing so, got better and better as I copied from magazines & artbooks, national geographic (once I was captivated by ethnic faces and bodies). Like writing, if you do it every day you cannot help but get better at it, so go for it girl! Methinks you have a talent for it.

   Hello Alero,
   As much as I would like to sculpt again, with my fingers itching at times, I am still in my ‘writing zone’, with several books that just must be written before I look at sculpting again, if I do so, but I will keep you in mind should this transpire. inspirit, Elfie
