This new doggie shape is part of a totem stack I'm creating for a special customer in South Carolina.
My creativity feeds off of my friends and customers. When I get positive feedback or suggestions for a new shape to try, it provides a positive energy I take with me to the studio. It may take several attempts to achieve what I consider a satisfactory result, but I like the process and realize failure only leads me closer to a good solution.
This wind chime commission memorializes a sweet husky named Kayla. Once the pieces are completely decorated, they will be strung together.
People that recognize the ClayByLaura ‘style’ often use the word happy in their description. The fact that my creations have become distinguishable and transmit the passion I feel as they are made are the perfect compliment to receive. This is my kind of virus!
