Thank you Wendy and Scott. Up until now i've really just been experimenting with glaze colours more than anything. Although i should really start a new design i'm enjoying playing around with different textures, carving detail, and adding the skulls at the moment. I also bought some matt finish glaze which i've mixed into three diffderent shades of brown so i look forward to seeing how that turns out.

When i finished adding my last post on Friday night i went out to Kustom Lane Gallery to see the David Lozeau exhibition. For those of you that don't know Davids work, he can also be found here in the other crafts thread on TC under the name of Clysdalle. David is out here for the exhibition at Kustom Lane and then he's heading up north for a hot rod show next weekend.

I messaged him on FB before he came and asked if he would do a custom painting on one of my mugs for me. He said that wouldn't be a problem and i must say i was extremely happy when i thought about offering one on my mugs as a trade for the painting and he said yes. The mug i traded is the woodgrain mug with the turquoise interior, and the mug he painted is the black one with the skull 'tumour', both from my last post.

Here's a few pics of David and I, the mug that he painted which i think he did an absolutely awesome job on, and also one of his original enamel paintings that i purchased.
