ok. So the copper wash got a little out of hand. Still - he's not too shabby.

This glaze technique needs some work. Still - from a distance, it looks aok. In the bisqued-ware state the lid fit perfectly. However, with the addition of glaze, it is now slippery-slidey. A bit of a challenge to keep the lid atop the pot!

Coupl' l'items
Should have twelve-hundred-and-forty-two words to share with y'all, but strangely, can think of only one or two !!! Haven't a clue why rising and shining (well . . . perhaps not shining ) at 3am does that to me -- leaves me speechless. Since i'm generally pretty wordy, some folks might see this as a blessing.

OK. First photos. Have read about making clay stamps by rolling out a slab of clay, then impressing designs into the flat surface, then rolling the textured clay into a cylinder. Skip the bisque fire step and go straight for glazed clay temps.
Did that.
Haven't tried using it yet as i've been focused on glazing. Have taken myself in hand and decided to glaze, glaze, glaze until all the waiting bisqued pieces are color-coated and out of the kiln as finished pieces. Speaking of which, here's the latest out of the kiln.

I'm on a roll folks and the weather is co-operating. So there will be more photos soon.
In the meantime
Happy glazing days to y'all
