This is the link to the Ohana Infirmary. If you haven't looked before and want to be grossed out take a look. I have lots of surgery photos from past injuries posted. This morning I posted photos of what took up most of our Friday. My cat is missing the time she usually spends outdoors.

So with what little time I had yesterday I worked on the Wish List. A bowl for Psycho Tiki D and a 3D Flame Bob for Joanne. Here are the photos.

First I started glazing the outside of the Frankoma War God bowl.

Then I remembered that doing the inside first is the best way to work.

I paint the bowl upside down and right side up

So I can see small missed areas.

For Joanne's 3D Flame Bob I started with three layers of red under-glaze.

Next I added yellow to the flames.

Then I lit a match and found that flames are blue and yellow so I added a blue base.

The blue needed to be toned down so it was back to adding more red.

I've painted it with 2 layers of clear glaze and its drying.

Today we will open the kiln and inspect each piece to see what needs to be fixed!
Soon Beachbumz but remember Christmas is not in October and I'm expecting horrors in the kiln such as Wolf Man Bob!

Cheers, Wendy
