Flying Fish

I have done a little more on the fish plate today, those little pink ones are taking forever to paint though.

Cream and Black Scraffito Jar

Another one finished! Well that is all apart from the lid which is not even made yet let alone painted and carved.

This jar is about 15 inches tall and is cream slip over black. I don’t even want to think about the amount of hours I have spent on it or the ensuing emphysema I may develop as a result of all the scraffito work.

Flying Fish

I have just got to share this one quickly with you all, it is the latest plate which consists of two harlequin fish surrounded by hundreds of tiny fish. Its taking an age to paint!

Finished

One slight crack on a the corner of a very elevated wing right at the bottom which I think will not be a problem as it doesn't go all the way through. I have got to leave it alone now or I will ruin everything.

Super Scary Moth Vase

Thanks to the wonders of Cling Film I have been able to work on this pot for an incredible EIGHT months!!! Goodness I didn’t think it was that long. I have been taken away for the workshop quite a lot this year but I am glad to say that I am back at work again. I hope it survives the kiln, I have never had things winging off like this before, it is also an absolute sod to decorate! Cracks are appearing around the wings but I think they will go disapear once I have finished stressing it out with all this wet slip I am applying.
