Foliage

This was sold last year, and I don't remember if it was to a friend, or just at one of the TailGate markets on Sat. morning.
That's coming up again soon. Our little co-op just met, and delegated who would be at the market which Saturdays during the summer.



Now this is my very own cauldron, which these days holds a huge purple shamrock. It is doing just fine here in the living room, with muted sunlight.



The purple foliage is such a good ground for the colors of the cauldron!

4 elements vase

A bit of a bald eagle soaring through air...

Some crystals to remind us of earth...



And of course a mountain waterfall for the element of water...





Spring reminds me of my 4 elements pot...showing here the firey side...























I have to hang my humming bird feeder soon. Here's my mask of a hummer...greatly dressed up in irridescent black. Oh you know, in case you want a masked ball of hummingbirds!































The Lyre player...which isn't for sale. The simplicity of her listening ...

Yoga Goddess & new glazes

This red clay lady has some eggshell glaze lightly applied, leaving her mainly her natural color, of course. Appropriately.

Close up showing some of the glaze.

Close up of her earthy feet, which have something like roots and indeed, she is related to a tree in many ways.


Other foot and root detail.



Yoga Goddess was fired in an electric kiln to cone 6. She stands about 20 inches high.




When a picture was taken in a different environment, the red clay looks different in color. This yoga goddess belongs in Deb Vingle's collecion of art. Deb is my yoga teacher.





This bowl is Little Loafers clay with a sponged on glaze combo. The bowl was thrown, then split on the 4 sides, and then reattached where the splits were overlapped. Top diameter is about 10 inches.






I like this glaze especially. A thrown base, with carved foot area, then slab applied in little torn patches on the upper area.







The sponged on glaze combination is my favorite glaze at this time. This vase stands about 13 inches high.








Detail of the foot area.









Inside the patched pieces of slab have been smoothed together, creating a seamless interior.
