I have some more pictures to share. First up are a couple of wipe-away skull mugs with colored interiors and a black satin lava flow glazed skull mug someone asked me to do on commission.

Then, I have a couple of unglazed bisque Duncan Stacker Mugs. I picked up the mold for these recently and they are really cool. I see them from time to time, but I think I will do a wipe away on them without clear coat. The clear coat tends to diminish the color of the wipe away. I'll use a colored gloss glaze on the insides, however.

Next, is a father/son project Joseph and I worked on recently. For you SpongeBob fans out there, I present the dreaded Plankton! Joseph did the body, but I suggested putting it on a plaque since it looked so fragile and I was sure it would crumble in the kiln. We'll probably use the green glaze seen in the interior of one of the skull mugs above for this one after next week when his school lets out for the summer. Maybe the wipe away blue on the plaque...depends on how crazy he get with the green glaze, though.

I expect to finish the ten or so bisque pieces sitting on the shelf over the next couple of weeks and will put up one more big post for the summer, but then I will need to take a short break from mudslinging for a while. I have some ink slinging to do with three or four writing projects I want to complete.

Thanks again for looking!
