BODY OF WATER
Well, OK, technically, it's clay. But it is a model of ancient Sumerian irrigation technique that P did for a 6th grade social studies project. It is a beautiful objet d'art, on its own. The school even kept it for a while on display in the Library. An acquantance who came to the house, and knew vaguely that I was an artist actually gasped in admiration when she saw it and asked it was one of my pieces! My heart swelled with maternal pride. Just like the levels in the Sumerian water ditches (or whatever they were called.)
