Making a dozen new ceramic masks.
The first group are in the kiln right now.
Checking out my glazes.
Makes me think of goops and sauces. My last group of vases were two colors only. This group calls for a big variety of colors.
Yellow, gold, black, green, blue, orange, tan and white. Almost every one got blue eyes except the devil had green. Lips are orange and everyone got black eyes lined.
There are four left that haven’t been bisqued yet. After seeing the first group, the palette may shift.
So more about goops and sauces. The glazes dry out and need to be rehydrated. The surface can have a big dry crack and the rehydration is done with a lot of stirring.
The change is really fun to watch.
Who do they look like to you? Recognize anyone?
