More catch up photos of my glazing days. These are photos from 5/1/19 through 5/5/19. I'm less than a month behind!

The black I used was an underglaze so I needed to go back and cover it with clear glaze.

This wish is in the owners hands. It's a another Tapa Bob version.

Here's the back.

This many mugs were in need of re-glazing, here they are waiting to go into the kiln.

Here are two that were glazed and let me know they were happy with how they turned out.

I am working on 11 Hot Tub Hula Girls. This will bring me up to number 129. I have a long waiting list so I'm not yet stopping.

There as so many glazing steps and requests for

hair color and even flower color.

Scrabble thinks she owns the place. She just squeezed in beside me and rolled over.

I was mixing glaze and it looked like an egg.

This one started with a light pink base and

then a whole lot of other colors.

Her boyfriend does this for clients.

It's not easy to do so many colors. Here's my version.

Now it was time to paint the coconut rim in bright white.

This hair color was to be black with a tinge of red.

I dried the white glaze outside.

Then I did two layers of clear and

then

I dried them outside.

Hot Tub Hula Girl mugs always require two glazing and two firings before they are ok. There's always defects and blotches but as long as these are forgiven I will do the work to get them done the best I can.
