About
the FLO BARTELL
Artist &
the
Work My goal in creating a series of small sculptures,
including “Gratitude”, was to experiment in order to find
which tools, materials, and techniques work best for
me before tackling a new large project. I met failures
and challenges as well as some successes, and I
am grateful for the lessons of both. As Einstein said,
“Failure is success in progress.”
I also hoped that in creating these small pieces I would
discover what story I need to tell in this chapter of my
life and what purpose I can find in making the journey.
As I finished “Gratitude”, I felt thankful for the resources
available to me and the opportunity to explore.
