Inchies and Inspiration

I recently moved and it seemed like forever before I was unpacked and organized enough to get back to my clay.  I received my list for the PCA Retreat monthly swap just at the right time to motivate me to get those last boxes sorted.
This month we were tasked with making inchies that incorporated color and geometry.   I'll admit that the concept of an inchie is was new to me.  After a quick Google search I determined it was exactly as it sounded.
Colorful is a bit of a challenge for me,  as I prefer earthiness and my clay work lately has been steampunk.  The phrase colorful geometry kept bringing Piet Mondrian's abstract work to mind, so I decided to use it for my inspiration.
These tiles were done with Kato clay and covered with Modge Podge Dimensional Glue.
