well its finaly true, i have wood working on here. i hope to be done with my new wood project with in the month but it is going to take some extra time and patience. i also have a bunch more ceramics pieces but i honestly don't feel like putting them on here. they are not that great and i am to lazy.
this isn't my best piece but its my favorite. i love my texture i putonto it with my fingers, i also love how the glazes turned out. i used my signiture glaze and found that the yellow and green run into a vivid blue as you can see. this piece has more class and personality than any outher piece i have created yet.
this is probably my best piece yet. 14 pounds of clay its kinda heavy. but i have found my glaze color scheme. turkish amber with desert yellow splah, forest green inside and lip. i really like how the brown and green mix into a black color at first but as you can see it is really a dark blue in the light.
this is the second thig i made. maple with walnut bands. this is probably my favorite but it was the most costly, it gave me two good cuts, ripped off part of my fingernail and almost put the chisle in my throat. i am currently working on a new platter which has 25 pieces to it that all have to be fitted exactly. i'm looking forward to it.

well, well, well, i haven't fired anything of mine for a very long time. its a little difficult when i am supposed to get as much in the kiln as i can and my stuff will take up the whole kiln. but i did a large item firing last and threw in a couple of my pieces, with experimental glazes. but i am hoping come monday that i will have some cool looking pieces. i still have to put my lamp and soon to be bowl on here. that bowl has done more damage to me than i thought it could. but it was fun and a challenge. i got a new hobie.
