Tree Grotto

I've had this idea floating through my brain for awhile and yesterday I had the perfect weather, the perfect clay and a wide open day.  I was hoping I could also make the goddess I want to go inside but that will have to wait for the next perfect day.  My plan was to put the goddess Asintmah inside but, now that the grotto is finished, I might make a really woodsy Mary.....or, maybe I'll make another more rose covered grotto for Mary and stick with my original plan...or...perhaps I'll change my mind completely.
I do that.
