BEAUTIFUL BOWLS CREATED BY BEAUTIFUL JOBURG ARTIST...

Yes, the unknown Johannesburg artist is beautiful because her bowls reflected her inner beauty. She had a pleasant, engaging smile that made anyone she met an instant friend...at least I felt that way. I learned she was displaying her art on this particular side-street for the first time. She related that sales were a little slow. It was difficult not to want to help her sell her creations--or at least buy one or two of them (which I did). I love to look at an artist's hands and try to make a connect between the art they create and the warmth they might exude with a smile or a glance. This unnamed person had a warm glow about her, which made purchasing her art an easy thing to do.
