So, while I was away (I still manage to read all of y'alls blogs, though. I love them. I'm addicted to them.) dealing with LIFE, I still managed to get my hands in some clay. Raku even.
I also decided that I want to get my porcelain on. Oy vey, that schtuff is like cream cheese. It's like learning to throw all over again. Below are a few things I've been up to. My first little porcelain bowl cracked but I still love it. I also squooze (I know that's not a real word but if we use it enough maybe it'll make it into Websters.) out a nice little soup bowl that looks pretty decent. I was also very happy with my raku bowls. I glazed them all with a turquoise glaze and yet they all have different hues.
I'm ever so proud of my little crown ornaments too. They didn't quite make it to the tree but they're still purdy. I know some folks hate it when their glaze runs but I kinda like it. It adds character. I love the way the clear glaze reacted with the brick glaze on my little red bowl and gave it a whole 'nother dimension. (It's my current fave, btw. I now plan all meals based on what I can eat in that bowl.)
