hang10tiki I have made a lot of them and every one is on the Gallery pages. I bet they still have made more but did they survive?

==============================

Sometimes you make something and it doesn't looks as good as you hoped. Can it be fixed? Dark can go over light but I've never been able to lighten something dark.

This fix turned out far better than I could have hoped for. These photos will skip about as I tell what I did.

I took a bowl I made many years ago. I didn't like how I glazed it so I covered it with Pingo Black.

I dried it outside and

painted another layer on.

I fired it and then to the eyes I added some red enamel.

Photo with a flash and

without the flash.

Here's how it looked before I re-glazed it.

I'm really happy. I even like the bits of white that show through.

Now I'm happy. Wendy
