The Lighthouse

Today I constructed my first lighthouse sculpture. I haven't created with my hands in such a long time that I had forgotten how soothing it feels. Food nor exercise can compete to the soft moist gray clay.

I didn't have any wire to create a base and structure, but just molding and releasing my anxieties was enough to sooth me.

The lighthouse symbolizes my relationship with God.

Before I went away to Rome the lighthouse I built in my life changing 3-D Art class with Bill Catling crumpled before my hands. What a reassuring way to leave, my relationship with God destroyed.

I feel as though my relationship with God is in a better state.

Here is the result I put a blue flashlight inside in order to create a bedside lamp. It adds more depth and dimension.
