I even tried to take my best piece that I have thrown and literally
throw it down and crush it. I couldn't do it.

Steven,

Keep yur best pieces..start by chucking the junk!

At the moment, I recycle just about everything...
except something that I just have to keep...
even then I mostly just do a quick sketch and toss it too.
Easy to make again.

Besides...I am somewhat unable to stop throwing
and the greenware is far too much already.

What I am more interested in... is the process..
exploration, flowing movement and... freedom..

What precisely it is... that makes things "happen".
The result is secondary..a by product.

Think of a musician..he plays for the moment.
everything is not recorded and canned.

let go.
