The spirit of IMPERFECTION

I think it all started at the Art summer schools  I attended during my high school years. I was lucky that my town Jönköping had the teachers from Swedish Art School in Stockholm coming down for 5 weeks during summer to teach art in my High School building..and also I was happy to be accepted as their student !

The man in charge of drawing and painting classes talked a lot about how to build pictures and such and he said that " the perfect is un-interesting"   If You see something perfect with the eyes the brain sort of "turnes of" or something like that  ....at least the way I understood his words...and I think for me this is very true......
Why make a painting that looks like a photo??

Also if I look around me in the world it is full of  US  the perfect spirits created  by GOD   but still not so perfect in our striving to  fulfill our purpose on this planet

and therefore  I like when my ceramic show up imperfection and has a touch of vulnerability ...........they do not look like this because i can not make them different but because I like them this way.......

I had in mind to make this post for some weeks now and was going to have a picture of a beautiful necklace I made from a pendant with edges like those cuff-focals picked out by a lady  in my studio (with hundreds to choose from).......... actually she choose the one with the biggest imperfection AND that made me think about creating this post.......but...
She came to pick it up earlier than expected so I have no picture ;

But here is another necklace I made with one of those not perfect pendants
