Thread: Visiting 5-3-10 (Att:Ash or any)

Ash looks up from the workbench as Mackenzie walked in. He is absently working on a new clay statue that is of four angels facing each other. He smiles as she walks in.

"To what do I owe this pleasure?"

Mackenzie smiles at Ash as she walks forward into the room. "Truly the pleasure is mine. I was hoping to just enjoy watching you for a bit and listening to your soothing music you play while you work. I know you are very busy. If I neglected to say already, congratulations on the new position."

Mackenzie walks in further and examines the pieces he is working on. "Are these the pieces we talked about?" She smiles. "They are coming along nicely."

Ash nods to the question, "Yes, these are the pieces I am getting started on. Full sized angels." Ash smiles, "If this is what is next, I can only imagine what the next person to come into this studio will ask for. First a horse and now this."

Ash looks around and finds some clay, "Guess that means I will need some help. Here you go, where do we start." Ash smiles and waits for Mackenzie to dig in.

Mackenzie chuckles and takes some clay. She smiles at him. "I'll have you know I failed Art class in high school."

Mackenzie watches Ash with the clay. "If you tell and show me how, I am more than willing to try. I'm sure you are a better teacher then the one I had."

Ash hits random on the Ipod and music starts to fill the room. YouTube - Norah Jones - The Prettiest Thing

Ash chuckles at the school comment, "I will do my best." Motioning to the lump of clay, "Work that until it is good and pliable. In the mean time form a mental picture in your head of what you want to form the clay into."

Ash watches Mackenzie work then picks up the clay he was working with before. He starts to form it into a wing.

Mackenzie kneeds the clay, working it with dedication. She frowns slightly as if trying to determine what she would like it to end up being. Hands are the first thing that comes to her mind. She glances up as Ash works his clay with ease of long practice. She smiles at him as she continues to work the clay.

Ash's hands do their own work while he watches Mackenzie. Chuckling he says, "So now that we have the snake down. We should work on something a little more challenging." He winks and points to the clay. "So what is it that you have in your mind to make?"

Mackenzie lets out a laugh as Ash stares at her pitiful clay. She grins at him and clenches a fist in victory. "Yes, I succeeded in a snake!" She laughs again. "I was actually thinking about hands." She shrugs. "I know, a bit ambitious, but I've got a great teacher."

Ash smiles brightly at the compliment, "Flattery will get you everywhere, my dear."

Ash looks at the clay in Mackenzie's hands. "Okay, so is it a closed hand or a open hand?"
