Well, I'm an architect student and really attract me to work one day desinging buildings and these things, but I always wanted to be a kind of artist, a person who work with the element on his environment, I would like to be a Potter.
A potter is someone who use clay to make pots, implements, utensils or equipment to be used in the general life, like plates or dishes or some things just to decoration. Potter make piggy banks too, an important stuff to save money.
When I was a kid spend my time sculpting animals and anything that I imagined, I really love made things with my hands, people thought that I was good, and I sold them my crocks.
Till today think that I'm very patient to work, I could be hours and hours sitting on a place (always with nice music) making some handicrafts, I think that is a charasteristict who help me to be an architect student, to make the job very well, and resist the frustration when the way becomes dificult (many times). This why I think that I can be good at this trade, patient is all you need.
I always admire the potters of Pomaire, how they make a lot of things with just mud and his hands, maybe they aren't riches, just get to survive and keep working, but I always think that they are very happy, connecting they lives with the land who lives, understanding what is surrounding, and been his only boss, working just to eat and be happy with little things, far away from the city and all the problems, with no frivolitys, just playing, playing with clay and the mind.
I know that one day will be a potter.
