Fresh From The Kiln

A few things upon which I've been working are finally done! Honestly, I'm pleased with the way they've turned out!
This porcelain vase is for my "normal" show, coming up in Napa at the beginning of September. I'm in the process of carving it and decided to take a picture of it in progress for whatever person confronts me with the "fact" that it was cast from a mold and not hand-carved. (Yes, I've had this happen!) Take that, you potential pseudo-intellectual jerk! ;) I'm hoping I can inlay it with colored porcelain slip, but we'll see how it goes!

 My shows are edging ever nearer, and panic is setting in. I may have to beg friends to help me glaze when the time comes...

    Nice stuff indeed! I particularly like the cake stand!
    There are lots of ignorant jerks in the world who have no real idea what goes into a piece.
    Carry on!

    I was just looking over your page because I saw you on the HBA. I looked over your stuff, and you're very talented! I am teaching myself to sculpt now, and paint in a smaller scale, which is hard because I have huge hands LOL

    Great page here, I just followed you. If you wanna chat horror films, swing by my page.
