I'll have 3 to submit this year...
here are some peeks
1) is a celedon glaze with black underglaze decoration
2) has red underglaze decoration and a clear glaze
and 3) has orange underglaze and tissue print decoration
The show runs until 1 September 2013 but the sales at the opening are quite good usually so best to get in then if you are in the market for a new teapot. Of course not all are functional. Many are hardly recognizable as teapots but always a wonderful range of clever, fun interpretations of the themes.
Quite happy with my other results...

Yeah for the teapots, do you test to see how they pour as well?
love how the boxes turned out. I like semi matt but my Gary is always telling me he likes shiny ceramics I think some folks like one and some the other, how about making them some matt and some shiny. It would be a good conversation starter at a show pointing out the differences to potential customers and asking which they preferred.
Hi Linda
Yes I do test for pouring. One of my teapots once had the glaze run back down inside the spout and clogged up all the sieve holes. It will make a nice planter when I get to it.
Having a choice of matt or shiny does sound good.
I get the feeling you are ready to play with clay again yourself? I know I get an itch if I'm away from clay for too long :^)
oh yipeee! All the best, hope they find new homes...
Thanks Kim :^) you are sure to hear if they do...
