The sculptural part of this bowl is done. The bowl is in a nice leather hard state right now...time to pick up the pace and dry it out faster. Thanks Robin for pointing out to me to finish drying it in the kiln...good idea.

Harro - Thanks for bouncing in! Big project for me, but lot's of fun :)

Robin - Hey, hey Mudslinger & Rock Muncher!...This clay has a little grog in it, but not enough to screw with those 06 glazes. It sure would be much stronger and more sculptural if I would have wedged a little sand into it, but I think your right...those gritty looking areas just don't cut it with the translucent glazes. It's not to bad with the more opaque 06 glazes. I guess I've just rounded first and headed towards 2nd on this here bowlie.

Clarita - Thank you C..It should hold enough liquor to make a moose mumble.

Hey Kel,

Sorry for the confusion, here is how I made this party bowl of yours to work. You get the fun task of figuring out the drink recipes :) Hope you like where this guy has gone...I know it just kind of took off and went where it was going to go.
