T. Scott Designs was
created and began business in the Fall of 1995. That was the
year I began sculpting gargoyles and dragons called
Comp-U-Gargs®. And for seven years, up till the spring of 2002
we have made and sold over 140,000 statues.
Then in the summer of 2002 I felt the need to change directions
somewhat. Not knowing what was going to happen or where to go I
simply tried to free up myself from my ego and see what came out
of the clay. A few days later I had sculpted my first Celtic
Cross.
The knotwork on the
piece was very simple compared to some, but even so it was
excruciating to figure out. I began to study more and more
knotwork patterns, trying to figure out how they wove themselves
in and out - always connecting back to the place they started.
It took several months of study and practice before the art of
making knots became second nature. In fact as I look back on it
now, knot making was extrememly difficult until I recognized the
reflection of the knots in my life, noticing the reflection of
how they actually described the day to day events that where
unfolding around me. Everything comes back to the beginning.
It was sometime
shortly after the this that I got a "message" so to speak from
inside. It seems I am suppose to create statues that are more
than just physical objects. The message I got was for me to
create something more like Talismans. Something that carried a
signal, a vibration of goodwill and of love. A message that God
is always with us. There is no separation. We are all children
of the spirit.
Not having any earthly
idea how to do this I began talking with friends and teachers -
my spiritual mentors. The people who had a clearer vision of
the energy world that lies unscene, all around us. These
teaches have helped and guided me immensly. Helping me to open
up parts of myself that would enable me to place a vibration
inside my work.
The vibration inside
all my work carries the signal of my intent. My signal, or
prayer if you will, is that you find your connection to the "All
that IS" and through that connection you gain the courage to
bring forth whatever gifts you brought with you into this life
-- sharing them with the world. Truely sharing your gifts with
the world puts you on your path. It releases the God Self within
you. And allows the spirit to flow through. I believe it's why
we came.
Ever wondered what
your gift is? I found that many times it's what you really want
to do, but for one reason or another, you haven't done it.
Perhaps you believe you don't have the money, or you don't have
the skill, or the confidence, or the support, or the etc. etc.
etc. Funny thing is, once you give in and start everything you
need shows up, and what doesn't show up usually turns out to be
what you "thought you needed", not what you really needed. You
rediscover the joy of the "journey", instead of focusing on the
destination.
Once you start you'll
find your life full of "passion."
Share your gifts
God Bless
