The Directions and The Elements
Sculptural Masks
by Jodi Forster
I have an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for being alive. If any one of the 5 elements were to be eliminated then I would not be here. Thank you Air, Fire, Water, Earth and Source

I had several melt downs while doing this work (melt down - lots of tears, yelling and anguish). I'd work for hours on a piece only to realize it wasn't what I envisioned and then dismantle it and start again. Breathe Jodi!! Let East provide the vision. Let South burn away the old idea. Let West wash it away; feel refreshed. Let North give a time of rest and reflection, a new idea will be revealed. Feel the source, the infinite creative force of life. Let source move me from my limitations to infinite possibilities. Blessed Be
