Pigs at Hazelhurst

You will know from my previous posts that I am involved in the Port Hacking Potters Group and its 48th National Pottery Competition which is on show right now at the Hazelhurst Regional Gallery and Arts Centre in Gymea NSW.

I have also entered a small sculpture and while I had no thought of being given any prizes I did think some might like the sculpture.

There are some amazing talented and skilful ceramic artists represented in this display...

I'll take some photos when I'm on desk duty later this week.

Here is a close up of "Cos All The Trees Have Vanished"  the title is a quote from a poem, Big Pigs Picnic by Mark Hopwood.

Good looking pigs! Dis you enter the pig you showed here a few days ago? He's a fine porker!

Hi Smartcat, thank you, no this is a different set but using much the same technique.

Hi Linda, thank you. I use terrasiggalata for the initial shine and then some polish to seal them when they are finished.
