zerostreet ceramics are hard work but oh so fun. You know what I mean now that you do it too. Big smile.

Loki-Tiki Tiki Hula is a photographer and one day there will be lots of his projects on fire.

hang10tiki I'm going to have to try to replicate that photo when it's fired. Good one, he loved it.

hang10tiki looks like his ears will catch fire it he doesn't use a straw! Thank you for the fun photos.

Another productive clay day at the fun house using lots of glaze colors. But I'm still catching up showing you projects that were made a while back.

The Moai always casts as a wall hanging so I have to cut off all the excess clay.

I also add some detail to the arms etc.

Once it is ready I use sticky clay and seal it to the mug. The bottom of the Moai is open so that air can escape.

Large grain sand paper for texture.

Next I carved the whole mug with bamboo and added clay at each joint.

Then using a tool I carved in texture behind all of the bamboo.

All done and time to let it dry.

This one is much lighter that Moai Mike's rocky version.

Now it's time to read more of the book the Historian. I was surprised when it turned out to be a book about Vampires, but it fun.

Cheers, Wendy
