Obsessed with circles at the moment,
what a lovely joybuzz to discover artist
Margaret Boozer
and her gorgeous installations
of dirt cookies and steel.
(This joybuzz word...I think I made it up,
and I think I'll keep it for awhile.)
Boozer's Red Dirt Studio in Mt. Ranier, Maryland
has behind it a pit of red clay she accesses
to create sculptures emphasizing the natural
texture of the material as it dries and cracks.
Isn't this fascinating?

I can't get enough of the concentric beauty.
Some of her intriguing commissions live in
embassies far from her native Alabama.

She has worked with

multiple design projects.

You Cannot Step Twice
Smoky Horizon + Lavender Earth
Whether it nurtures the seed,
firmly supports a tree,
or becomes a muse
for a talented ceramicist,
isn't dirt lovely?
Peace to you right where you are.
