another batch of goodies



Now if I could only make this bigger....

This bowl is porcelain, it came out this cheery yellow using the same glaze as the bowl below...





Landon polished this with the back of a spoon when it was bone-hard; this is called Burnishing. It went all shiny and smooth, and then after firing it became rough again. A neat effect to play with. I love that the bubbles that were underglazed blue, stayed blue, even after being polished.


This is one of my crazy fairy-houses/oil diffusers... they didn't photograph as nicely as I would have liked....the top is a maple leaf.



This is a very big piece I've started... So big, it will just barely fit in the kiln! Can you tell I'm kind of excited about it?? .... more to come if it survives the drying process.... and first firing....
