hang10tiki thank you, it has cooled off and later today I'll open the kiln.

dartharnie Gosh I'd forgotten about that guy. I used to watch him when I was in high school.

MadDogMike isn't it fun to know that there is something new on the way?
I feel the need to say thank you a whole bunch. TU TU TU TU and its a privilege to think like you.
I am just relieved that the face didn't creep on the cannibal bowl since it has a deadline. Funny isn't it, same glazes, same task and different results.

GROG roommate right. They should bring it to you in the hospital to use to drink your diet of red juice, red Jello and red liquefied meat. Zipper Bob is only as wonderful as you. I hope you have fun with him after the ordeal is all over.

Thank you for all the photos. I can't take them that close because TC flips my photos sideways.

dartharnie maybe this glaze froze in the winter and will do it on flat surfaces forever. I'll have to try it again. We like British TV series too.

GROG ???


Just because I took the photos of GROG's mug in progress I'm going to post them because I have little to show today.

Carved in clay.

Sanding.

Brushing and then Dan did the air compressor.

Firing then I washed it.

Painted the letters three times.

Rubbed off the glaze that wasn't embedded.

This was an experiment. I used a glaze that was a light color and I painted over the black lettering.

I finished the glazing.

Out of the kiln the lettering showed up just fine.

All day yesterday I worked on the painting for Oasis 13. It is still not done but I made it a much
hotter place to be for the woman. Any moment her grass skirt it going up in flames. I can't seem to take a good photo without glare. These even are fuzzy. I added a lot more color to her skin.

There are problems and details to finish. Example look at her waist on the right and the skirt. I've already started on the fix.

I have to keep working on the painting until I finish. Oasis is around the corner. Cheers, Wendy
