Thank boys :)

Well, Sir B...the only pictures that were important to me were the ones with that kid. :) I had to rush with the pumpkin as I only had an hour to clean an carve on it. I asked Nicky (daughter) to send me a picture of it done tonight and all she sent me was these two...I kinda like the blue one...it hides the rushed bad parts :lol:

Well, I pulled these out of the kiln a little bit ago...This is a collaboration with Wendy (Dan loves Tiki). I did the glaze work on these, and Wendy sculpted the master on this wonderful "Eat, Drink, and Be Merry" Mug...I built the mold for her on it, and I cast a few off of this mold to sell in order to pay for the time I put in on the mold build out for Wendy. I only did 10 mugs total, and I dropped one of the blue ones, so I really only have 9 :( Of that 9 I only have 5 left (yellow is gone)...if anyone is interested, they are $65. plus $10 S+H - just shoot me a pm if interested.

Your really good with your hands Wendy. I'm very happy that you have decided to build your studio up and learn...you have spent way too many years building the names up for other "basic crafts" people who are only in it to make a dollar off the backs of others. You are an "artist" Wendy with your own ideas and skill. Its time you did it for you...and I know that you will go far with clay, as I can tell that you really love it. That's the key! Good luck. I can't wait to see what you do with this mug lady. :)
