Wow! Thank you all VERY much for the kind words :) Having the time to dive into the studio has truly been a blessing...

I've only got a quick moment to post so,

This 1933 Porkster with Babloon is all done - "Yay" finally! I came in just under the wire on it...but, hey, I'm now at the gate ready for the starting gun to go off on Squid's Show tonight at 6:00 pm :) This really should be a good show. I know that I am going to be pricing this here piggy to "MOVE". It was really cool to take a break from my drum focus and drop in this fun one. Again, have your fingers on the buttons at 6:00 pm on http://www.squidart.com - look at "all" those delicious piggies on Squid's Site there!!

Last night with Squid on the phone, I counted the glazes up I used on this guy, and I ended up using 21 different glaze colors, and close to 2 grams of white gold in order to come up with this final look for him.

I glazed in some ice in the drink there :)

Also, I started this thread on the Asmat People and their work over in General... http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=35504&forum=1&11
please take some time and poke around on some of those links listed there. Hopefully, you find the topic as interesting as I do...It's back to the hand built drum focus in the studio for me for a while. If you have a custom something, something ordered with me...thank you for your patience...I'm on it. - There are a couple of production mugs in the works right now as well.... Everyday is a clay day! :)

Thank for looking - more soon :)
