Frilly Birds

The design on the birds was inspired by a fabric i saw.  I am working on a set of 4, plus I am making smaller accent plates.  the small bowl was done on the wheel,  and painted there too.  I love playing with dragonfly designs.

You are a Real Square, Man

I have been working hard on building up inventory as you all know,  but also on having different type of items.  I have been on a hand built square bowl kick and this week did a few in different colors.  Each side is cut ouit of the clay,  then the corners are mitred so they fit together nicely.  One day I will take pics and show the process.  Here they are.

New Wheels, no it isn’t a car.

It is better then a car.  This weekend I received my new speedball clay boss potters wheel.  It is so much nicer then my old one,  I can see a lot of my work happening on this.

This morning was a kiln unload morn.  I did some more experimentation here as you will see.  I also started on medallions.  I will be using these as tier one incentive on my kickstarter project.

A New Venture

I recently started a project on a sight called kickstarter,  a great place for artists to get funding.  I am trying to get my open air studio build via this sight.
