Healing Times
This post is to share some love and encouragement with a wonderful artist I met through WordPress. Belén Soto creates whimsical ceramic creatures, along with traditional ceramics. I recently found out that she has been quiet online due to a health challenge. It’s shocking anytime I hear of a friend facing a health challenge, especially someone who is full of kindness and passion for life. There aren’t always reasons we can understand for why people get sick. You can learn more about Belén and her art on her personal blog or shopping website.
Belén’s creations invite our imagination to play. Her fans often create stories and adventures for her adorable figures. Here is a fun example from Resa at Graffiti Lux Art & More. She created a wonderful story for Drake involving international travel, love, marriage, and family! And I’ve written many poems inspired by her delightful art like this one called Dancing with Dino.
Thank you Belén for sharing your beautiful creations. You have brought me so much joy. May love and vitality fill your body and soul.
Please visit Belén to share some love and joy. Maybe you’ll want to take home a new friend from Spain.
Wow 🤩

I also know Belen through WP and wondered where she has been. Her creations are so delightful. I will stop by, Brad. Thank you for passing along this news. Quite a few WP voices have vanished over the past year and there’s no way to know what happened.

Brad, your kind and considerate nature shines through in this post. It is worrying when people are quiet for longer periods and I hope your friend is soon better! Her work is wonderful and a great touch of humour and fun! Ceramics always seems an underappreciated art form!
