All together

A good crowd for a Saturday afternoon!

Trying to explain how Inga's secret process may be put together to dear friends, Thea and Brian.

More Homage at Hazelhurst

This set worked better off to the side and why did I do pink rather than more yellow? Well before it was all mounted the pink on the wall piece was more apparent, however I do plan on making a yellow series next time.
Native Violets are the theme here. Along with tissue transfer prints I decorated each bottle and the container with violets hand drawn using ceramic pencil. This set sold at the opening.
I named this series "Blue Traditions". Sold one bottle.
"Hibbertia in Blue" The design for this one is based on a creeper which grows near our letterbox.

Inviting you to my first group exhibition

Hope you can make to my first group exhibition at Hazelhurst Regional Gallery. Opens at 2pm Saturday 19th September and finishes Tuesday 29th September 2009.

Preview - nearly ready

Here are a few pieces that should be in the Hazelhurst Exhibition in a couple of weeks -

Your Invited

The 2009 Teapot Show starts soon -

Toward an exhibition

This little lidded container is a new proto type which I hope will be included in my exhibition - more decoration will be applied after bisque.

2009 Teapots

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon thrown with an iron bearing clay which comes out during a reduction firing. The Shino glaze is a grey where thick and the brown/orange blush where thin. Worked well for the tiger and not too bad for the dragon which was drawn with oxides and ceramic pencil.

Jade - a proto type this one, just trying out the design which uses an inlay technique plus a few tissue prints.

These are destined for the Sydney Teapot Show which will start on 31st July and run thru August. The gallery is the Innercity Clayworkers at Glebe. This will be my third year of taking part.

In the making for Teapot Show 09

the theme is 'crouching tiger, hidden dragon' so I made some little tigers and will attempt to draw a dragon on later in oxides. I have also made a spare and will decorate it differently.

Glaze Tests

I have made some medallion shapes to use as glaze tests before deciding how to glaze my 'mirror' wall pieces.
