Anastasia. Raku clay, stoneware, electric kiln, coiling technique, textured.

I know an elderly Greek lady named Anastasia.  She often sits outside of her house.  When my son was little and I was picking him up from kindergarten, she would often give him some sweet treats and invite me in for a strong cup of coffee.  We would talk for a while and she would tell me about her life. She has one son, but he doesn’t visit her often. Sometimes, Anastasia waits for her son for many hours on the day when he is supposed to visit.
