The Winter Moose Kickstarter - number one - closed on Nov. 8th without funding. The good news is that I expanded my network, attended a seminar on successful crowd source fundraising, and began the work of launching a new campaign. I have spent the past few days sketching and drawing, as my daughter edits the script, and plans on taking the video. This time we will ask for only $3,700, to take some small but important steps forward. To balance the Winter Moose work, I have also kept my hands in the clay. Here are some new vials from three moulds I just got back from the kiln. I love them. I find it so entertaining to see the clay shrink as it dries. After hours of focus, I find simple pleasures are the best!
