I am
Lydia Lee Mixon
an artist and maker.
I am curious about all
things and have never
known the feeling of
completion,
So I keep searching
hoping the notion
never comes,
And I am left with a trail of
beautiful things behind me.
My work is quiet.
Not quite in the way that it is not heard,
quiet in the way it does not need to be loud to be heard.
I hope tomorrow I am not the same as I am today. Tomorrow I am wiser, stronger, filled with more joy, filled with more questions, knowing more answers, knowing less today than yesterday.
My exploration of clay, the endless material, is a way for me to finally meet myself. After a lifetime of knowing others, who am I?
It is a way for me to meet and know the Creator of all things, a way for me to rationalize my connection to earth, to creatures great and small, to all of man.
